About This Home
(Open House 10/25 & 10/26 12-2) Tucked away in the heart of the historic Stockade neighborhood, this two-family home offers a rare opportunity to bring new life to a property with endless potential. Surrounded by cobblestone streets, centuries-old architecture, and the unique charm that makes the Stockade so beloved, this home is more than just an investment—it's a chance to be part of history.
Yes, it does need work—but that's where the opportunity lies. Imagine restoring its character and creating a space that reflects your vision. Live in one unit and let the other help pay your mortgage, or design a welcoming retreat for tenants while keeping one half for yourself. The possibilities are wide open, and with the right touch, this property can truly shine again.
A large fenced-in yard is waiting to be transformed into your own private outdoor oasis, perfect for summer gatherings, gardening, or a quiet escape. Off-street parking makes daily life easier, especially in such a sought-after location. And with the vibrant downtown just steps away, you'll enjoy easy access to shops, restaurants, parks, and the beauty of the Mohawk River.
If you've been dreaming of a project that offers both character and convenience, this home invites you to roll up your sleeves and reimagine what's possible. With vision, creativity, and hard work, you can turn this into something truly special. This will not pass a VA or standard FHA loan
