409 2nd Avenue

Open house Sat 9/13 from 12-2. Step into history and elegance at 409 Second Avenue, a prominent Troy mansion built in 1910 by the son of Deborah Powers, one of Troy's most philanthropic figures. Set far back from the road on a private, treed lot overlooking the Hudson River, this home offers breathtaking views from a lower viewing deck and upper screened-in porch. A grand foyer welcomes you with a grand piano and library featuring original built-ins. The parlor dazzles with a crystal chandelier, fireplace, and window seats, while the formal dining room shines with bay windows and a butler's pantry with wine storage. The gourmet kitchen boasts cherry cabinetry, Sub-Zero fridge, AGA stove with pot filler, and island seating, plus a spacious mudroom with built-ins. The primary suite features hardwood floors, fireplace, and a luxurious onyx makeup vanity. Two additional bedrooms, a large laundry/flex space, and a third floor with two more bedrooms and full bath complete this historic residence, lovingly cared for by the same family for 30 years.
