Description

Standing for more than a century, this 1889 majestical house is in need of substantial modification. If you have a passion for historical preservation and are willing to put in the effort, this property could become a unique and charming home once again. Historically, the front of the home was a family-run convenient store for local residents. The land in which the home inhabits is flat and beautifully surrounded by rolling hill views. In addition, there is small spring fed pond which could easily be enlarged. The plumbing system was working in 2022, when the home was still occupied. It has been winterized ever since. The inside of the home was cleared out by the present owner. The home is in need of major cleaning and repair. The electric is 200 amp service. The septic was installed in 2012, DEP engineered, and pumped in 2019 (info obtained from the DEP). The age of the oil tank and water heater are unknown. There are 2 heater unit grates in the home, one on the first floor and one on the second. The wooden floors which are visible are in good shape and could be refurbished. There are areas covered by many layers of linoleum and carpet, but believed to be wood also. The yard consists of a chicken coupe and a small shed, which need cleanout and could possibly be replenished. The land requires removing equipment, RVs, and other random clutter. The property is located between Margaretville and Andes and is 2.5 hours from NYC. Surrounding areas have some of the best hiking, kayaking, skiing and arts this region has to offer. The property is being sold as-is, and is priced accordingly. This home may not qualify for a loan. Cash preferred.
