About this property

A truly special property with timeless character, outdoor spaces, and a picturesque setting overlooking the Mohawk River. Welcome to this lovingly maintained 1940 American Foursquare, cherished by its current owners for more than 21 years. Set on 3 expansive acres with frontage on four roads, this distinctive property offers the space, privacy, and natural beauty that are increasingly hard to find. One of the home's most captivating features is its newly renovated front porch overlooking the Mohawk River-a wonderful place to enjoy morning coffee, unwind at the end of the day, or simply take in the changing seasons. A second balcony/covered porch provides another special outdoor vantage point from the second floor. Inside, the home retains much of the beautiful character that makes an older home so appealing. A gracious foyer welcomes you with an open staircase, original architectural details, a leaded-beveled glass window and stained glass window. The living room features French doors, beautiful natural light, and another striking leaded-beveled glass window. The dining room and a comfortable sitting area with beautiful Quad Fire vintage style pellet stove provide plenty of space for entertaining or relaxing. The updated kitchen thoughtfully blends modern convenience with original charm, including the home's beautiful original step-back cupboard. The second floor offers four bedrooms, a full bath and a long hallway with built-in linen storage, and access to the covered balcony. The bathroom includes both a separate shower and a Pearl whirlpool soaking tub, creating a comfortable retreat at the end of the day. The large, full walk-up attic offers abundant storage and exciting possibilities for future use, whether as a recreation room, studio, office, or additional living space. The full basement provides additional storage and workspace, along with the home's laundry area. Outside is where this property truly shines. The 3-acre grounds become spectacular in the summer, with mature trees, colorful gardens, and perennial plantings that provide blooms across three seasons. The landscaping includes beautiful hickory, chestnut, apple, cherry and pear trees, along with established perennial gardens featuring hostas, peonies, iris, hydrangeas, coneflowers, black eyed Susans, daylilies and berry bushes including blackberries, black raspberries, grapes and elderberries A charming picket fence welcomes you into the front yard, while the expansive grounds provide plenty of room for gardening, entertaining, relaxing, recreation, or simply enjoying the beauty and privacy of your own property. Gather around the stone fire pit on summer evenings or spend a quiet afternoon enjoying the gardens and river views. A garden shed provides convenient storage for tools and outdoor equipment. The property also includes a detached two-car garage with new overhead doors, a slate roof, municipal water, private septic, and 200-amp electrical service. A newly completed leach field provides an important recent improvement. This is much more than a house-it is a property with history, character, mature landscaping, beautiful river views, and room to enjoy the outdoors. With its rare combination of 3 acres, frontage on four roads, Mohawk River views, established gardens, multiple outdoor living spaces, and timeless architectural details, this is a home that deserves to be experienced in person.

    Questions to ask before you buy

    Good questions for any home near the slopes.

    1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
    2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
    3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
    4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
    5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
    6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
