Unlock the Gold in Sweat Equity! This is your chance to turn vision into value. Set amongst the trees on a hillside in desirable Taconic Estates, this mid-century (not modern) 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home (built in 1964) offers 2156 sq ft of living space on more than an acre of wooded, bucolic land with specimen plantings, flowering shrubs, and walking trails. Yes, the yard is overgrown. Yes, the interior needs TLC. But the payoff is undeniable: a rare opportunity to buy into a neighborhood of more expensive homes for a fraction of the cost. For those willing to roll up their sleeves, there's real equity to be mined here. Inside, the home surprises with an open floor plan: living and dining spaces flow off the kitchen and out to a marvelous, three season screened porch, perfect for dining and relaxation. Down the hall are the primary bedroom with ensuite, 2 additional large bedrooms and the hall bath. The lower level contains the laundry room with lavatory plus 3 addtional large rooms with storage. The private setting offers a true retreat from the hustle and bustle. Location is the secret weapon here. Just moments from the Taconic State Parkway and about 20-25 minutes to Metro-North stations at Beacon or New Hamburg, this home is a commuter's dream. On weekends, enjoy the Hudson Valley's wineries, dining, outdoor activities and historic landmarks, all within easy reach. This property isn't turnkey, but it doesn't pretend to be. It's a canvas for renovators, visionaries, and anyone who sees potential in a diamond-in-the-rough. Bring your contractor, bring your Pinterest boards, and bring your imagination - because gold is still gold, even when you have to dig for it.
