Built in 1878 and set on 24.7 private acres, this beautifully updated farmhouse offers over 4,000 sq ft of inviting, modern living space with incredible flexibility. Freshly painted throughout, the home feels bright, open, and welcoming from the moment you step inside. The stunning kitchen features gorgeous cabinetry, beautiful countertops, stainless steel appliances, an oversized island, and a walk-in pantry, flowing seamlessly into a spacious dining area. The large living room showcases dramatic wood-beam ceilings and a pellet stove that adds warmth, charm, and character. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is joined by freshly painted bedrooms with modern lighting and abundant natural light. Multiple bonus and flexible-use spaces throughout the home provide endless possibilities for work, recreation, or hobbies, and the layout offers the potential to create an in-law suite. Outdoor living is just as impressive, featuring two decks, a fully fenced one-acre yard, and acres of open and wooded land to explore, garden, hike, ATV, or simply enjoy the peace and privacy. A detached garage/outbuilding provides excellent storage and utility space. Just minutes to downtown Troy and an easy commute to Albany, this rare Melrose property delivers space, privacy, history, and thoughtful updates, an ideal opportunity for those seeking room to live, grow, and create.
