A Turn-Key Beacon Home, Two Blocks Off Main Street: $759.9K

  |  April 30, 2024

Spring is the best time to show a house, and today’s Upstater pick proves it. The flowering tree and purple carpet of blooms frame this turn-key Beacon home, two blocks off Main Street.

The home was built in 1900 but underwent a down-to-the-studs renovation in 2019. Not only was the basic infrastructure replaced—electric, plumbing, and HVAC— so were the kitchen, bathrooms, roof, siding, and windows. The facade is pretty, with a porticoed front entry and window boxes on the main-floor windows.

The foyer is bright, painted a light gray with brilliant white accents on the door and stairwell.

Recessed lighting accents the floor-to-ceiling gas fireplace and a gleaming wood floor.

The dining room flows into the open-concept kitchen. A modern, Edison-light chandelier illuminates the dining table.

A deep green accent wall is the perfect backdrop for a Midcentury Modern buffet sideboard.

Stacked laundry machines hide behind a door just past the dining room.

The kitchen has cream-colored cabinets. A pharmacy pendant lamp hangs over the center island, which is topped with granite matching the countertops. Sliders lead to the deck.

A first-floor bedroom is currently used as a sitting room/TV room with a sunny bow window. It’s perfect for a cup of tea and a good book…

…or catching up on the latest binge-watch.

The house has three bathrooms. This one, just off the kitchen, has marble walls and a glass-door shower.

Three more bedrooms are upstairs. Three windows pour sunlight into this one.

The hall bath has a tub/shower that’s tiled in a color scheme that complements the ash walls. The vanity is white-on-white.

Another green accent wall appears in this bedroom. Lots of tall windows brighten the room. We love the brass, wall-mounted reading sconces on either side of the bed.

The ensuite bath has a brown-tiled, oversized shower and a white vanity with leather-strap handles.

More white walls and glowing hardwood flooring are the focus in this room…

…along with a reeded accent wall with room for an exercise machine.

Outdoor space includes this wooden deck that gets lots of sun.

The deck leads down to the driveway.

And the side yard is a grassy blank canvas. The deets: The house measures 1,842 square feet and sits on 0.18 acre. It’s under a 10-minute walk to Baja 328 Tequila Bar for a reposado and great food.
