Head North for an Affordable Country Cottage on an Acre of Land, $69,900
Kandy Harris | October 21, 2016If we were in the market for a modest two-bedroom getaway cottage near the Catskills, we would be digging deeper into this 800-square foot Cape Cod-style house. While it’s located in Albany County, the property is right on the cusp of Greene County 20 minutes north of Windham Mountain.
The c.1890 cottage has a few new things like the windows and electric system. Its charm lies in its exposed beams, wood floors, and large windows, and the living room woodstove provides heat when it gets chilly. And that leads us to our big question vis-a-vis this cute package: Is it seasonal?
Either way, we love the property’s private and picturesque locale and the fact that it’s got just enough land to provide a sense of space while remaining easy to manage. Slap some siding and a coat of paint on the outside, and you’ve got yourself a nice little secret escape.
