About this home
Discover one of the best values in the Guilderland School District. Set on a sprawling 1.25-acre parcel, this classic single-family home was built with old-school grit, craftsmanship, and structural integrity that's hard to find today. Whether you're looking for a solid ''as-is'' purchase or envision a full rehab transformation, this property offers remarkable potential — including the opportunity to create a separate in-law apartment using existing space. Inside, you'll find 4 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, hardwood floors, generous room sizes, and a huge enclosed porch perfect for year-round enjoyment. Several outbuildings add flexibility for storage, hobbies, or future expansion. With its prime location, acreage, and countless possibilities, this home is arguably the best deal in Guilderland — and likely the best value property available on the market
