Even the street address sounds like a Colonial throwback, and if the thought of fixing up an old farmhouse in the country sounds like your kind of fantasy, cast your eyes to 198 Johnny Cake Lane, Margaretville. The framework already exists for the coolest renovated c.1840s Greek Revival farmhouse this side of the Platte Kill, so roll up your sleeves and get to work on this 3 bed/2 bath, 1500 square foot heirloom. Includes a lot of the original woodworking like the moldings and pine plank floors, which could look renewed with elbow grease, as well as a detached garage. A streamside locale as many perks (like the chance to delete your nature sounds app because the real deal is right outside your window), but Floodsmart.gov puts it, not surprisingly, at high risk for flooding.
