Sharon’s Take
This five-bedroom Troy home built in 1934 has undergone extensive recent work, including a new roof, furnace, electrical panel, and windows in 2024 and 2025, plus bathroom updates and a refreshed kitchen with modern appliances and countertops. Located minutes from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in the Troy City school district, the 2,089-square-foot residence features a full basement, detached one-car garage, and a private backyard with an in-ground pool and new liner. The property sits on a paved driveway with no HOA fees, offering flexibility for various living arrangements.
