$135,000

Not every diamond comes polished; old-house charm, historic character, and a whole lot of potential! If you've been searching for a renovation project with the opportunity to bring a piece of Vermont history back to life, this property deserves your attention. This home still holds reminders of its past, from hardwood floors to charming architectural details that give older homes their unmistakable character. The sellers have cleared the land, revealing a beautiful, almost magical wooded setting with possibilities for lush gardens, a charming stone patio, winding pathways, and outdoor spaces that embrace the natural beauty of the property. Looking for even more possibilities? A beautiful, level 1.2-acre lot across the street is also available for purchase separately, offering the opportunity to explore additional space for future plans. Bring your vision, your creativity, and a willingness to roll up your sleeves. This old house has stories to tell. What will yours be?

New Kingston, NY

5030 County Route 6
$149,000

A RARE FIND FOR LOVERS OF OLD HOMES!

Step back in time with this charming early Catskills home, rich in original character and historic detail. Located in New Kingston, within the Town of Middletown—one of Delaware County’s oldest townships, incorporated in 1789—this property offers a wonderful opportunity to own a piece of local history. Much of the home's original character remains intact, from its original hardwood floors and antique doors to solid-slab wood interior walls, open-beamed ceilings, and charming six-lite windows with traditional muntins. The first floor features an open kitchen and living area, a separate formal dining room, entry foyer, full bath, and laundry/utility room. Upstairs, a spacious landing connects three generously sized bedrooms, with room to add a second bathroom if desired. A covered porch and small deck overlook the generous backyard, where a tributary of Plattekill Stream meanders along the lower property line. New Kingston now benefits from municipal septic service but the property will require a new well, as the original hand-dug well is no longer operational. For old-house enthusiasts seeking a distinctive Catskills retreat or a full-time home, this is an appealing opportunity to bring new life to a property with more than two centuries of history.
