A Cozy, Move-in-Ready Bungalow in Ghent

  |  October 21, 2025

Looking for simple elegance? It’s here, at a cozy bungalow in Ghent, Columbia County.

The exterior oozes traditional lines, from a covered porch to its white siding and bright red front door.

That porch is perfect for catching breezes and watching thunderstorms roll by.

A nicely finished hardwood floor sweeps through the main level from the front door.

The living room is open to the dining area and kitchen. A door hides stairs to the second floor.

White, panel-front cabinetry matches the subway-tile backsplash in the kitchen. Black quartz counters and stainless-steel appliances offer a beautiful contrast.

In this view, you can see a breakfast-bar peninsula at one end of the kitchen. Glass sliders next to the refrigerator at the other end open up to the deck.

The main floor features two bedrooms. Solid trim frames the baseboards and windows, and that hardwood flooring, again, is beautifully finished.

Traditional penny tile lines the floor in the bathroom, which also has a pedestal sink and a tub/shower.

The second bedroom looks like it may be a tad bigger than the other one.

A cavernous primary bedroom has a gambrel-shape ceiling and lots of built-in storage cabinets.

Black hexie tile and a black-trimmed glass shower are dramatic in the ensuite bath.

The attached, outdoor deck is big enough for a party.

Plus, there’s a cute red barn for storage. The house sits on 1.5 acres of wide-open space.

It’s near the heart of Ghent, and just a few doors down from White Stone Cafe for burgers or salads. The home is listed for $579,900.
