112 Main St, Unadilla, NY 13849

There’s something about a red door. In early American Colonial tradition, a red front door meant welcome. It signaled safety to travelers, hospitality to neighbors, and in many communities, prosperity and protection over the home. It wasn’t decoration — it was declaration. And this 1867 Colonial in Unadilla still carries that message. Set on 1.73 village acres, this 2,685-square-foot historic home offers six bedrooms, four full bathrooms, including a rare one-bedroom guest suite/apartment — a layout that feels both grand and deeply personal. Built just after the Civil War, this home has stood through generations, preserving its character while offering the space today’s buyer quietly hopes to find. Inside, the proportions are classic — generous rooms, high ceilings, natural light pouring through tall windows. These are timeless qualities of architecture that transcend trendiness. The wide plank pine floors, a myriad of antique latches and handles, crisp colors, and thoughtful flourishes create a real coziness and feeling of home. There’s plenty of room here for a large number of primary residents, creative workspaces, guests, or the life you’ve been planning but haven’t had the space to grow into. The layout also affords flexibility and options for extended guest stays or potential rental income through the first floor guest suite complete with it's own entry, kitchen, and full bath with laundry options. A bright back sunroom opens out to a spacious deck, and the level backyard provides ample opportunity to establish your vision of outdoor living. The detached garage adds convenience without interrupting the home’s historic presence. With access to I-88 just around the corner, this home is super convenient to Binghamton (40), and Oneonta and All-Star Village (20). This isn’t just square footage. It’s stewardship. It’s for the buyer who: Loves original character and American history, wants a home that tells a story the moment you walk up the path, sees value in craftsmanship that has already lasted 158 years. This is an opportunity to own a true piece of upstate New York history. And that red door? It’s still welcoming the right person home.
