HIGhLY MOTIVATED SELLER DROPPED PRICE TO 1/2 of where it started. #1230 Private Riverside Retreat, Eastern Montgomery County No one can build on either side, hay meadows are across the road and, to the west - a one minute walk to swim or fish in the Schoharie, where you have 500’ of owned frontage (498’ frontage along the road). You’ll drive right by and never notice the place, as the home is hidden both from road and from river. Your own private world on 1.4 acres. Huge trees of many kinds are everywhere, plus flower beds and fruit & nut trees: peach, prune-plum, cherry, mulberry, walnut. There is a a fenced in vegetable garden spot with a garden shed/chicken coop/playhouse. Wildlife roams through freely; the bald eagles and the fox kits are especially fun to watch. Everyday, you can hear the Schoharie rippling right from your home. The home is totally unique, a bit whimsical, and in excellent condition, with, among other things, a recently updated septic (2011), well (>300’) and water system (2015), furnace (2018), roof, even a new piered foundation (2011). 4 zone gas HW heat plus wood stove and stone fireplace; you’ll be snug and warm. If you are a wood-lover, this is the place for you. Many kinds of woods are utilized to great effect inside. There are walls of walnut and cherry wood, plus cedar, white oak, red fir… Each ceiling is wooden and the floors are every bit as nice. They do not believe in taking shortcuts here. Master carpenters have always been hired whenever they decided to make updates and improvements. There are 7 rooms, 2-3 of which are bedrooms. County records show it as 1160ft2, but I do not believe that includes the huge wrap-around former porch, which is now a fully integrated living space. Nearly everywhere, the ceilings are cathedral, sloped, and are wooden, either tongue and groove or with exposed rafters (extra insulation is above these - not to worry). All floors are wooden. 200 amp electric with some pendant lights. Let’s explore the many features. The kitchen/entryway has a multi-paned windowed front door. A wood stove sits on a large custom-made bricked hearth and chimney area here. Custom hickory counter, granite sink, with 2 commercial grade stainless steel tables are on the other side. All appliances were new in 2018 (stove, dishwasher, 2 refrigerators + a stackable washer/drier). There is a security system. The living room contains the creek stone fireplace & chimney (separate flue from the chimney used for the wood stove). An antique wooden bathtub is utilized as a wood bin. Since this is the only room without cathedral ceilings, crown molding was able to be used. A large center beam supports the ceiling and the story above it. It has both storage and coat closets and a collapsible attic entry. The large wrap-around former back porch is heated and insulated and has walls of windows. They use this for dining, so they can look out onto the grounds or over to the river. It’s the first choice of guests to use this room for sleeping. It has extra closet space and a moveable separation for the laundry. Base walls here are of cherry. There are 1 1/2 baths - the main bath features a clawfoot tub inset into a cedar alcove with shelves and next to it is a black onyx stand-alone shower, one with brass inlays and handrail. And then there is the special Mexican Sun hand basin for hand and face washing. Pretty neat. The second floor bedroom has plank flooring, a skylight and a Civil War era entry door. A stairs with decorative white oak rails and bannister lead to it. Off it is the half bath. The study has a wall-mounted TV and, with the addition of a closet or boudoir, could become a third bedroom. The basement has a work shop area and is drive-through for lawn equipment. It was recently rebuilt and has a dirt floor which could be easily excavated for additional living space or a wine cellar, should a new owner wish to do so. Walkways of Tamarack wood are along the front side and a deck is to the right. It features decorative and whimsical wrought iron ballusters. A short cement stairway leads down to the home from the road. This is located 35 miles from downtown Saratoga Springs, about the same from Albany, and is just 6 miles to the NY Thruway, and it’s just beyond that to a large shopping area with big box stores and smaller shops. The owners have requested that potential viewers first be qualified before setting an appointment. All viewings are by appointment, so you will need to do a little bit of coordination with me before you come. Note: this property is in a flood plain: yet Irene, a 500 year flood (which theoretically means you should be good now for another 485 years), did not enter the living space. So, yes, they have flood insurance (~ $2000/year). Far more than offsetting the extra insurance are the amazingly low taxes of $965.22 (combined school and town & county bills). $375000. As the older owners are moving cross country to be nearer children, the furnishings can be made available by separate treaty.

#1232 Central Montgomery County - Utterly classic Greek Revival home, 3690 ft2 and it sits on a small knoll with a pass-thru drive, big old maples in front. White vinyl siding and dark steel roofing, both of which appear as new. There are 6.5 surveyed acres here with a 4 acre field of gravel soils (not recently cropped for it would qualify as organic). These soils are suitable for any crop that can be grown in the area. The property is a low elevation so it is naturally somewhat warmer here and has a slightly longer growing season than most country homes do. A corner lot, there is over 1000’ of frontage on 2 roads. It has huge open interior rooms with oak floors on the main level, newer thermo-paned windows, new septic, new electric entrance (200amp) with 2 sub panels. Drywall is throughout and is recent. Yes, there is high speed internet. The previous owner was an Amish father/son, each with their own families, so it was used back then as a 2 family. Not any longer. The father’’s side has been updated the most, with new wiring and plumbing. There is a living room/dining room/kitchen area plus a single bedroom downstairs, along with a full (new) bath. Upstairs is a large bedroom and a large attic space, which could new easily converted to more living space if you felt there was a need. The son’s side has had updates to wiring and plumbing, but they are not completed. All materials to finish this are included. It has an even larger living room/ dining room/ kitchen, L-shaped. Downstairs in this section is a bedroom, a newly finished mud room, and a very large cement-floored room which is used as a shop now - it would be suitable for adding a sauna, hot tub, billiards - lots of space for your imagination to play around with. There is a not fully-completed but functional full bathroom here as well. Upstairs are three bedrooms with a sitting room. One of the bedrooms is especially large. You can simply walk from one side to the other, no need to go outside, so it would be super easy to make it one-family again. There are 2 large basements, connected by a crawlspace. Heat is from higher efficiency cast iron wood stoves and, yes, the home has been insulated. Water is from a perfectly good drilled well but for daily use they do as the Amish did and use a gravity fed spring, which is on a neighbor’s land. All appliances, wood stoves are included and the owner can add any of his furnishings that you may wish to have. There are 3 porches, 2 in front and one, a very large one, on the side. Two very nice oak doors open to the front porches. Behind the home is a garage, (roughly 18x24’), a chicken coop, and a firepit for summer relaxing. To the side are 2 other buildings, each about 12x24’. One is used by a neighbor as a ceramic studio. It has 220 wiring; the other is 3 & 1/2 sided and is used for storage. All but the chicken coop are white and are mostly of recent origin. There is also a cement-floored hitching post for 4 horses. This has the sought-after Fonda-Fultonville schools and adjoins a small community of youngish folks who have an abiding interest in growing their own food and participating in the arts. Across the street is a non-profit vegetable farm, part of this community’s outreach. You have more than enough land here to participate in this along with a home big enough to accommodate rentals to their seasonal workers. If you want. Or you could use it as a B&B - or use it as originally intended, a grand single family home. Total taxes are only $4000 and the price is just as modest - $275000. It will be available to be shown from October 3rd on. But make your plans to visit now!

Fonda Schools! Once we called it the “Ugliest Home in Montgomery County”, but we sure can’t say that anymore. Instead of being smothered in weeds, the lawn has been reseeded and the home is, well, sharp - white with black accents. There are .6 acres here, all open, pretty flat, with a tiny stream at the back. 90’ of frontage on Rte. 30A. There is a storage shed, in fair condition but dry and good for storage. You’ll find newly installed brick walks and recent crushed stone on the driveway and parking spaces. Room for up to 8 cars. The home has nearly 1300 square feet of living space. Agents who visit often call it “adorable”: and “cute”. Downstairs is an 11x19’ living room with refinished oak floors and real 3/4” wood-paneled walls, with a vented fire-view gas stove, one which not only heats, but lends a warm and friendly ambiance. There are new (real) engineered wood plank floors in 5 rooms. The kitchen (8x17’, L-shaped) and dining room (11x11.5’) have an open floor plan and some new cabinets, some older (you won’t be able to tell which is which). All cabinets have been freshly painted and have new pulls. Counters are ceramic and are new. Visitors love them. Behind it is a dedicated full laundry and a spacious full bath. There is also a 9x11” bedroom on the first floor (no closet). Upstairs is a new half bath and two large bedrooms (12x12’, 12x16’), each with a vast amount of closet space. All windows are thermopane ones. The roof is middle-aged with plenty of life left. Foundation and many floor joists & supports are recent. The few rooms without new floors have been refinished. The basement stairs are new. The main basement has a comparatively recent foundation of poured cement and the reminder was new last year. The basement is under 3/4 of the home and is wet after rains, with the water directed away so no damage is done. Red pavers guarantee dry clean feet anytime you go down. A self-emptying dehumidifier guarantees that air stays dry, thereby keeping everything free from moisture-induced rot. There is a very good drilled well, one good enough that it’s legally shared by a neighbor, who supplies his own pump and electric. New water system: pump, plumbing (Pex supply lines, PVC drains), HW heater and pressure tank) - no sulfur, plenty of water for several families. The home has just been very well insulated, packed to the gills so it heats easily.. Fresh paint is on every wall and ceiling. Other than the upper portion of the stairway, everything has been sheetrocked, no old crumbly plaster to worry about. There is a new 200 amp electric entrance and most all the wiring has been updated. Heat is gas hot air, 2 new units plus the Fire-View, and there are a number of vents and ceiling fans for good air circulation, both summer and winter. The front porch was rebuilt from the floor up and a small back stoop was newly added. The home is newly sided, white with black trim and shutters. This theme carries over to the front and back porches and results in a sharp-looking home. We’ve finished more than a year’s full-time work on this and are now ready to sell at $133000. Best country home around anywhere near this price. Nothing competes. Taxes are around $1400, that’s all. First come, first served; the early bird gets the prize. There are a few things I want to bring to your attention before any offers are made. 1) This is Montgomery County: that means the basement can be wet. It is. The cement floor was never sloped properly to drain naturally, so I have installed pavers to displace additional water and to elevate your soles above the original floor so the surface is dry. Water makes it’s way under them to a sump. The pump here was new in 2024 and the lines carry water away from the home, underground, so there is no hose in the way outside and there is no water on the surface of the ground. Moisture in the basement air is removed by a dehumidifier which dumps automatically into the sump and is pumped away whenever enough has accumulated. In the past there was no dehumidifier: you can see evidence of rotted beams as a result. Pressure-treated joists have been added and sistered to properly strengthen the floor above and new posts were added as needed, with bases elevated so moisture cannot seep into them. 2) We share the well with a neighbor. There has always been plenty of water for all. The well is on our land, but the neighbors (good folks) have the right to repair their system if it is ever needed. He uses his own electricity and his own pump, so there is no cost to me. These things are in the deeds and cannot be changed. 3) Close examination will reveal that not all walls are perfectly plumb. As the angles are not identical and there is not anything leaning; my best guess is that it was built this way. At any rate, it has been so for over 100 years. 4) The shed has a poor foundation. It keeps its contents dry and out of the weather, the same as if it were good, but it will not last forever. 5) At one time in the past, there had been a fire in the attic. You can see blackened wood. The insurance company made the repair, that’s why new plywood can be seen under the shingles. Work was done to their standards. I am personally OK with all these things, but want you to know them ahead of time and to understand that we cannot allow a contract to be terminated if an inspector you hire tells you what I just told you.
