Sharon’s Take
This 1952 home in Schenectady offers two bedrooms, one bath, and a bonus room upstairs with potential for a third bedroom or home office. Recent updates include a renovated kitchen and new laminate flooring throughout. The main floor includes laundry, central air conditioning, and an attached one-car garage. A full unfinished basement with a working toilet and direct garage access provides room to expand, while the fenced backyard features new vinyl fencing, a storage shed, and a covered awning. Schenectady, home to Union College and the revitalized Proctors cultural venue, combines historic neighborhoods with nearby parks and nature preserve trails.

About this property
Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home featuring a spacious upstairs bonus room that can serve as a home office, den, or potential third bedroom. While the room does not currently have a closet, there is ample space for a wardrobe or freestanding clothing cabinet. The kitchen has been completely renovated within the last five years, and the home features new laminate flooring throughout. Enjoy the convenience of first-floor laundry and central air conditioning for year-round comfort. The heated basement offers excellent potential for additional finished living space and already includes a working toilet. With the addition of a partition wall, door, and sink, it could easily become a second bathroom or finished recreation area. The basement also provides direct access to the attached one-car garage. Step outside to enjoy the large, fully fenced backyard featuring a new white vinyl privacy fence, along with a matching white vinyl picket fence in the front yard. The backyard also includes a storage shed, providing plenty of space for lawn equipment, tools, and outdoor storage. A large covered awning, also added within the last five years, creates the perfect outdoor gathering space. Simply add a paver patio to complete this beautiful backyard retreat. Located in a quiet neighborhood with nearby parks and a nature preserve offering scenic walking and hiking trails just down the street, this home combines comfort, convenience, and future potential. Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to own a home in a peaceful setting!
