Nestled in one of Niskayuna's most picturesque neighborhoods, this rare Paul Schaefer original blends timeless charm with thoughtful modern updates. Set on nearly an acre, the property welcomes you with mature landscaping, a whimsical footbridge, and a storybook stone wall—offering privacy, tranquility, and curb appeal. Inside, you'll find warm hardwood floors, custom woodwork, and a spacious, flexible layout. The gourmet kitchen features quartz countertops, Schrock cabinetry, recessed lighting, a custom island, and Café matte appliances—perfect for entertaining and everyday life. The living and family rooms include built-ins and a cozy wood-burning fireplace, while the signature Adirondack-style room off the back offers peaceful views and a second fireplace. Upstairs, the home offers four bedrooms, a bonus room above the garage, and abundant natural light throughout. The finished walkout basement adds even more living space for a media room, gym, or guest suite. Outside, enjoy a newer patio, custom pergola, shed, playground, and lush yard—just minutes from schools, shops, and restaurants. This is more than a home—it's a lifestyle rooted in community, character, and comfort. Agent is owner.
