You can truly be part of the community with this 1880 Colonial home located in the heart of Troy. Set on 1.5 acres, this stately home offers almost 3,000 square feet of finished living space. You enter into the gracious kitchen with a peninsula offering great prep space as well as seating for 5-6, a pantry, and dining area with a 6' slider leading to the deck. Beyond the dining area you'll find a large laundry room with a hide-away ironing board and a ¾ bath with an oversized handicap-accessible tile shower. Bird lovers will enjoy watching flying friends come to the feeders from the comfort of the sunny enclosed porch just off the kitchen. Moving toward the front of the house is an office/den with built-in bar area and then the living room with sunlight streaming through the bay window. As you ascend the stairs the 14x21' primary bedroom is to the right with a dream walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms are opposite, and a ¾ bath is centrally located. Beyond the bath is 30x40' of unfinished attic space ideal for storage. More storage space is available in the attached 3-bay garage/barn, which includes a small stable ideal for a workshop or storing large toys. The large yard offers some nice lawn area, perennial beds, and productive apple trees. There is a small section of the house leased to the USPS with 4 years remaining on the $700/month lease. This home is central to all town amenities and only 8 miles from Jay Peak Resort. Schedule a time to come see this lovely home.
