817 Genesee Street

Exciting opportunity in Schenectady's Bellevue neighborhood! This vacant lot once hosted a two-family residence, making it ideal for investors or owner-occupants ready to build their first home or an income-generating duplex. With residential utilities and zoning in place (buyer to verify with the city), this parcel is a perfect blank slate for new construction in an established neighborhood. Located less than a mile from daily conveniences, this site offers excellent accessibility to schools, parks, and shopping. Van Corlaer Elementary School is just 0.4 miles away, and nearby CDTA bus routes connect directly to Downtown Schenectady and surrounding districts. Enjoy proximity to downtown shops, restaurants, Proctors Theatre, the YMCA, and Mohawk Harbor, plus easy access to major routes for commuting. The Mohawk Towpath Scenic Byway and several local parks offer great recreation options right nearby. This property's former two-family footprint gives future owners flexibility — build a single-family home, duplex, or rental investment (subject to city approvals). Investors will appreciate the rental potential in a strong residential area, while first-time builders can create a custom home in a convenient location close to everything.
