Got family or business in the Capital Region…or Massachusetts…or Vermont? This Rensselaer County cottage puts you within striking distance of all three. 

Not only that, it’s a real charmer, especially if you’re looking for a weekend cottage, to downsize to something more manageable, or a first home. Includes 1,185 square feet, two bedrooms, and one full bath. Lots of built-ins lend it practicality, and a wall of windows floods the opening living room/dining room/kitchen with natural light. A wood stove keeps things cozy.

Also comes with hardwood floors, high ceilings, and a second bedroom located in the attic. According to the listing, the c.1930s cottage needs some TLC and is being sold as-is, but if the photos are any indication, things in are in pretty good condition, albeit in need of some updating.
