Five-Figure Fridays: Cairo Cottage (With a Little Imagination)
Upstater | August 17, 2012
Yep, the math is clear: the closer you are to the city, the less likely you’re going to find something truly lovely for less than a hundred grand. So, you have to look for something salvageable in a good spot. Will this work?


It’s got two beds and one bath, 864 square feet on almost an acre and a half. Other asset: detached two car garage. Yeah, the wood paneling is not for everyone, but that’s easy enough to improve. We bet Upstate Jane could work her magic here! It’s up in the sweet little spot called Cairo (pronounced like the corn syrup, not the city in Egypt), in Greene County.
21 Sleepy Dutchman Late, Cairo. $97,000. GMAP.
