About 2228 State Route 203
This 9.5-acre property in Chatham, NY offers exceptional potential, with multiple structures including a huge 2 story barn in excellent condition with a private pond. for swimming. A true diamond in the rough, the 2,005-square-foot main home features 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms and has solid bones, though it does need some TLC. Dual brick fireplaces in the living room and reading nook, a formal dining room, and a 3-season porch add to its historic country charm. The property also includes a small unfinished house without a well or septic, ideal for use as a studio, guest house, or ADU. A huge barn with a loft and heated spaces offers excellent potential for a workshop, studio, or agricultural use, and it even includes an older walk-in refrigerator. The loft is ready for new owners to make it their own. A second, smaller barn also features a hayloft and has been used for storage. Although the vegetation is currently overgrown, the established fruit trees, perennial flower beds, and raised vegetable beds save years of effort.
