Public Remarks: Over $150,000 in major capital improvements / updates since 2021, including an owned solar system, new roof, Buderus boiler, hot water heater, replacement energy efficient windows, and electrical upgrades--giving buyers the character of a historic Victorian with the benefit of 21st Century improvements. Beautifully maintained Queen Anne Victorian in Albany's sought-after Pine Hills neighborhood, just minutes from local restaurants, cafés, Madison Theatre, the Pine Hills Library, St. Peter's Hospital, and the growing Albany County offices located on the former College of Saint Rose campus. A welcoming enclosed front porch leads to a home rich in original character, featuring hardwood floors, pocket doors, stained-glass windows, decorative fireplaces, and detailed woodwork throughout. The first floor offers a formal living room, spacious family room or guest room with full bath and formal dining room. The updated kitchen has granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances and leads to an enclosed porch opening to the beautifully landscaped yard with inviting seating areas and established flower gardens. The second floor includes a master bedroom plus 3 spacious additional bedrooms, a full bath with laundry, and beautiful original flooring. The third floor provides a private suite with a full bath and oversized walk-in closet, ideal as a primary retreat, guest quarters, or flexible living space. The home also features a long, dedicated driveway with ample space for multiple cars, leading to the gated backyard with possible additional parking. A rare opportunity to own a classic Albany Victorian with the major systems already updated. All fireplaces are capped and decorative only.
