City living with suburban space and serenity!

Inside, approximately 2,500 square feet of sun-filled living space features hardwood floors, vintage charm and thoughtful updates. A spacious formal living room with a stunning 12-foot bay window flows into the dining room, perfect for gatherings. Cozy up by the wood-burning fireplace in the additional family room, or enjoy the flexibility of a first-floor bedroom with built-in shelving, ideal for a home office, library or guest space.

The fenced backyard offers room for four-legged friends to roam, while the above-ground pool, patio and gazebo set the scene for summer entertaining. Newly installed, OWNED solar panels add value and potential energy savings without lease payments or tricky fine-print. Just minutes from Union College, Ellis Hospital, Upper Union Street and downtown, enjoy local restaurants, coffee shops, the Schenectady Greenmarket, Proctors Theatre, Rivers Casino and a vibrant arts scene. Explore the city, then come home to your peaceful retreat. All the charm of an established neighborhood, the excitement of city living and space to truly make yourself at home!
