Fix Up this Former Post Office/Ice Cream Parlor in Greene County, $88,900

  |  November 3, 2016

We know we promised mostly turn-key five-figure properties this week, but how could we resist an 1850s post office/ice cream parlor situated in the Catskills? 

In truth, it hasn’t been a post office/ice cream parlor in quite some time, and it definitely needs a ton of work. This green county fixer upper isn’t a place you should dismiss so quickly . That semi-octagonal room with a wall of paned glass depicted above might make all that labor worthwhile when you’ve finished jazzing up the place.

Includes stone fireplace (the chimney is cool but looks like it needs repair), original glass windows, hardwood floors, three bedrooms, one bath, and over a half-acre of land on the West Kill creek in the northern Catskills. This is countrified territory, indeed, and close to skiing, hiking, water recreation, hunting…the works.
