Built in 1878 and set on 24.7 private acres, this beautifully updated farmhouse offers more than 4,000 sq ft of inviting, modern living space. Freshly painted throughout, the home feels bright and open the moment you step inside. The stunning kitchen features dark cabinetry, beautiful counters, stainless steel appliances, an oversized island, and a walk-in pantry. It flows seamlessly into a spacious dining area. The large living room showcases dramatic wood-beam ceilings and a pellet stove that adds warmth and character. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is accompanied by freshly updated bedrooms with modern lighting and abundant natural light. A large bonus room, filled with windows and rustic wood paneling, offers incredible flexibility for a studio, recreation room, office, gym or whatever you can imagine. Its private staircase connects conveniently to the first-floor mudroom and laundry. Outdoor living is just as appealing, with two decks, a fully fenced one-acre yard, and acres of open and wooded land to explore, garden, hike, ATV or simply enjoy the privacy and natural beauty. The detached garage/outbuilding adds great storage potential. Just minutes to downtown Troy and an easy commute to Albany, this rare Melrose property offers space, privacy, history, and thoughtful updates all in one.
