651 Converse Rd, Nicholville, NY 12965

From the moment you turn into 651 Converse Rd, the oversized lot (3.8 acres) with the raised garden beds and 30+ apple trees capture your attention and calls you to wander about the yard. Surrounded by stone walls and bordered by a 100-acre family farm, it is no wonder the deer choose to seek out these apple trees. This 1.5 story, three bedroom, 1 bath home has had too many updates to count under the current owners. Starting at the most important steps of shoring up the foundation with extra beams and support posts, to installing poured concrete countertops in the remodeled kitchen. This owner set this home up to stand another 120+ years. In addition to the remodeling in the house, the barn has new footers and a cement floor with pex lines installed so the next owner can heat this garage or create a workshop or man cave of their dreams. Inside the home you enter through a large utility/mud room with vaulted ceiling and bamboo flooring. On the back half of this room is extra pantry storage and a laundry room. Hardwood flooring throughout the main floor of the house with a galley kitchen and eat-at counter, this makes the kitchen feel much larger than you expect, as the room opens up to the formal dining room and living room for that open concept. The staircase leads up to two good sized bedrooms with walk-in closets and a smaller bedroom that is currently functioning as a large walk-in closet/storage area but has the potential to be a small bedroom or an in-home office area. The 70-foot drilled well supplies the water source for the home and a new filtration system is installed. The home sits in the middle of 3.8 acres and the current owner has created several park-like areas throughout the lot, including a small pond on the back corner. Meticulous landscaping with many large perennial beds borders the house and yard, along with a new privacy fence. The deck was crafted to take advantage of the stacked stone raised beds and has a stone base for the grill area. This property is just down the road from the James Tharrett Memorial Park in Fort Jackson and is only ½ mile from the St. Regis River. You will not want to miss seeing this home if you are looking for your own piece of privacy in a home that has the character and charm of a 1900's post and beam structure, but with care and maintenance along with modern upgrades.
