Property Description

1800s Farmhouse on 17.49 Acres of Scenic Beauty in Westerlo Nestled in the rolling hills of Westerlo, this 1800s farmhouse offers the perfect blend of historic charm, natural beauty, and untapped potential. Set on nearly 18 acres of meadows, woodlands, and distant mountain views, the setting is nothing short of idyllic—quiet, peaceful, and full of promise.

Original wide board floors, a mix of sheetrock, plaster, and paneling, and double-hung windows provide the kind of vintage touches that can't be replicated. With thoughtful updates integrated over time, this home provides a fantastic canvas for your personal touches. A major highlight is the spacious, heated 4-car garage with an accessory dwelling unit (ADU)—offering incredible flexibility.

Major infrastructure improvements have been tackled for you: two new propane boilers and hot water heaters, a whole-house generator for year-round peace of mind, a freshly painted exterior in 2024 to enhance curb appeal plus the roof on the studio/garage was replaced and the metal roof on the main house painted with an anti-rust paint both in 2024, to protect your investment. Step outside and you'll find land that truly sings—open fields perfect for gardening, animals, or stargazing; shaded wooded areas to explore; and long-range views that remind you why people fall in love with Upstate New York. Whether you're dreaming a weekend country escape, or a place to cultivate your own creative vision, this property offers space to grow—literally and figuratively. If you're seeking a one-of-a-kind property with history, heart, and room to make it your own, this farmhouse is ready for its next chapter.
