56 Henry Street

About This Property

The largest request from people who fall in love with Saratoga is that they want a home just steps from downtown. I've lived here my whole life, and I understand that -- my office is right on Broadway. But I always smile when they say they want to spend under $1 million, because that's usually a tall order... until today. This home is literally two blocks from Broadway, with the library, Solevo, Caffè Lena, and the best part of Caroline Street just steps away. The home has most recently been used as a successful Airbnb, giving visitors full immersion into the Saratoga experience. It's lovely and still features some of Saratoga's classic Victorian charm. The front porch is one of its best features -- the perfect place to sit and watch the steady stream of people enjoying downtown's dining, shopping, and nightlife. It provides great entertainment, especially with the appropriate beverage while porch-sitting. While there is no off-street parking, there is plenty of street parking along Henry Street or the side street, Lafayette. The yard is the perfect size for outdoor living, reminiscent of the courtyards of New Orleans -- sizable enough for kids and pets, yet manageable. The home has been updated over time and is 100% ready for your next home or investment. Owned solar panels installed in 2015 provide energy savings for the next owner, and the roof is estimated to be approximately 15 years old. Additional features include a Ring security camera system, a WiFi-enabled thermostat, and new window A/C units for added comfort and convenience. Financials available upon request.
