About This Home

As of March 2026

Once upon a time, this wasn't just a Cape Cod single family home. It was a vision. A brick Cape built in 1941, shaped by timeless simplicity and practical comfort, with a design for easy everyday living and room to grow, rooted in decades of thoughtful ownership and the established charm of Rensselaer. Each corner invites a sense of warmth and ease. Mornings begin with sunlight spilling across hardwood floors, light plays through the living and dining spaces, and evenings settle into relaxed moments on the enclosed porch overlooking the spacious yard. The side lot is owned by the farm behind giving you complete privacy on one side. This home has been loved deeply and now it is ready for someone new. You'll notice classic hardwood floors and a welcoming layout, along with an unfinished walk up attic designed to deliver flexibility, expansion possibilities, and a feeling of promise. It clicks in the moment you step inside and then again when you take in the depth of the lot, confirmed by the feeling that this is a place you could truly settle into. Now it is ready for someone new to make it theirs. The vision turns into a lifestyle of comfort and possibility for the next owner. Consider this your invitation to feel at home. Located within East Greenbush School District.
