1427 Lexington Avenue, City of Schenectady :: Offered for $225,000.00
"Relax on Your Front Porch and
Enjoy the Neighborhood!"
After a day filled with some stress, deadlines and text messages, you can pull into your driveway, lay the day’s responsibilities aside and relax on your front porch.
There aren’t many homes that come up for sale in the North section of the City of Schenectady, currently. One reason may include the fact that this neighborhood has some of the most caring neighbors around who, with joy and gladness, call Lexington Avenue “home”.
Homes built in the era of the 1930’s, such as this Cape Cod, can have numerous quality features you just won’t find in modern construction such as glass doorknobs. Yet, the best it yet to come!
This home has a full front porch which not only provides protection from sun or rain but comprises, in effect, extra living space for the home during pleasant weather—accommodating chairs or benches, tables, plants and traditional porch furnishings such as a porch swing, rocking chairs or perhaps a ceiling fan.
The Floor Plan of this Cape Cod Home
The first floor comprises the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, dining nook, two bedrooms and a full ceramic bath.
The Second floor contains two additional bedrooms and storage space.
If the weather doesn’t accommodate a front porch gathering, you can move inside to the Living Room which includes hardwood flooring and enough room for you to be creative as you place your furnishings.
The dining room is a natural extension of the living room which continues the hardwood flooring and exhibits a built-in China cabinet.
The kitchen is as efficient as it is concise. The easy to maintain linoleum flooring and the painted cabinets and floor plan all combine to make the responsibility of cooking and cleaning up such an easy job to handle. All kitchen appliances as placed are included in the sale of the home.
Here is a feature you won’t find in a newly constructed home: A dining nook, sometimes referred to as a breakfast nook. Children and adults alike - this is the preferred place to serve breakfast so that you are not separated from them while you prepare their morning meal.
If you are the chef of the manor, you'll be pleased to have a kitchen pantry within arm's reach while preparing meals.
The full ceramic bath offers a classic appearance with the styling and design of tile that has become popular, once again.
You’ll note there is a cast iron bathtub with a shower, which are well known for their durability, longevity and superior heat retention.
There are two first floor bedrooms, each with hardwood flooring. Bedroom two has a double wide wardrobe closet with additional storage available under the staircase.
The second floor straight away presents a custom and unique built-in feature of a house of this vintage: A built-in bookcase common to everyone.
Bedroom three is ready for a “day bed” or a queen-sized bed with nice quality features including double wide wardrobe closets and built-in shelving.
The primary bedroom is sizable and ready for your smart-TV and space for other pieces of furniture, too.
This room includes some time-tested sensibilities and quality features such as a window seat, a double wardrobe closet and combines those elements with modern features such as an operable skylight.
The full basement is where the mechanical systems of the home are found such as the natural gas fired boiler, which was new in 2017 and the natural gas fired hot water tank which was installed in 2013. The electric service is 100AMP circuit breakers. The washer and dryer are included in the sale of the home.
The two-car detached garage offers the right set of circumstances for a repair project and customization. Depending upon your experience and “DIY” willingness, this garage is ready for a renovation project for someone who has the vision, commitment and enthusiasm necessary to make this structure not only accommodate automobiles, yet perhaps a wood workers project shop, too.
The two-car detached garage has an obvious lean. Seller states the structure has not altered its stance during the time of their 36 years of ownership. The two-car garage is excluded from the structural inspection. The property is sold “as is” without warranty to condition.
As you drive home after your day of work or errands, you’ll look forward to arriving at the house you are thankful to call “home”.
