Located minutes from the charming villages of Altamont and Voorheesville, and an easy commute to Albany or Schenectady, this owner-designed and built contemporary solar home will appeal to those interested in nature and sustainable living. The private 5-acre property features a diverse plant and wildlife species with the remains of the historic Indian Ladder Trail crossing the property on its climb up the Helderberg escarpment. The house features interior posts/beams, wood floors/ceilings, a central masonry chimney, cathedral ceilings, expansive windows and a finished walk-out basement. Outdoor living is elevated by enjoying any one of the three decks, including a private one off the primary bedroom. Solar panels on the roof supply 100% of the current owner's annual use of electricity.
