About this House

Sometimes the best homes are the simple ones done right.

This classic 3-bedroom ranch sits in one of Schenectady's most desirable neighborhoods and offers the kind of easy living people are always searching for. From the moment you step inside, the gleaming hardwood floors set a warm and welcoming tone throughout the home.

The living room centers around a cozy gas fireplace, creating the perfect place to unwind after a long day or gather with friends and family. The kitchen features solid oak cabinetry and plenty of counter space, while the tiled bath with tub insert keeps things clean, practical, and ready for everyday living.

Step outside and you'll discover one of the real highlights of the property -- a huge fenced backyard. Whether it's space for pets to roam, kids to play, weekend gatherings, or simply enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, the yard offers room to make it your own.

With 1,100 square feet of comfortable living space, 220-amp electrical service, and a layout that just makes sense, this home is a great opportunity for first-time buyers, downsizers, or anyone looking for a solid home in a great location.

And with a motivated seller, this could be the one that makes the most sense.

Come take a look and see why homes like this don't stay available for long.

    "clean lovely well kept area closer to public transit, union college. And close to downtown. lots of good places to be social, eat and/or have a nice drink. I can say in experiencing the last 2 storms the streets don't have sufficient drainage in heavy rain or downpours. Rain water regularly washes above and onto curbs/sidewalks "

  • Jackie
    "I've lived in this section of Schenectady since 1980. Amazing Victorian homes to buy or rent at affordable prices. I love walking to the library, shops, Proctor's Theater, and restaurants. The Union College campus is gorgeous and offers free movies and concerts every week during the academic year. The area also has a very active community of poets and writers. "
  • Propertymgmntgroup
    "Really convenient area to be in. Great food and dining at either end of Union St. Nearby parks (Central Park), shopping, entertainment (Proctors, Bow-Tie Cinema). Lots of great walking and biking terrain and close to the GE Realty Plot. This has pretty good parking for cities as well. "
  • lise g.
    "I was living here from 2005 to 2011, and I just love this area. Very friendly neighborhood."
  • Jackie
    "Proximity to Union College makes this a safe area, free of serious crime. I love walking to the library, PO, shops, and restaurants. And the neighboring college campus is gorgeous. Is there student silliness? Yes, sometimes... but there's also a wonderful mix of people of all ages and I enjoy attending college films, concerts, etc."
