Small suburban community just north of Albany

Eastside Troy is a suburb located seven miles north of Albany with a small-town America vibe. The neighborhood sits on elevated terrain and provides a quiet community with quick access to amenities. “The city of Troy is getting a lot of restaurants and development,” says Lisa Walsh, Broker/Owner of Capital Tech Real Estate Group, who’s been selling homes in the area for over 15 years. “Eastside Troy is up on the hills, but it’s close enough that you can still go down and enjoy what the city offers.”
