Q & A with Listing Agent, Darlene Chorman

What are the home’s most valuable features for prospective buyers?

“985 Midline Road is an incredible farm property with 107 acres on 5 tax parcels and frontage on 2 roads. Trails through the woods and fenced pastures make this a paradise for cross-country skiing, hunting and snowmobiles.

There is a beautiful, custom 3 bedroom home with beautiful views overlooking the peaceful pond with footbridges and gazebo. Additional buildings include a 2-story horse barn with machinery storage, workshops and tack rooms, plus, an attached 2 bedroom cottage which could be used as a rental/income property or caretaker’s residence. A 2 car heated detached garage and 2 car attached garage provide plenty of additional storage.

In the past, this versatile property has served as a horse farm, a golf driving range, and a venue for seasonal attractions (haunted hayrides); there are many potential income possibilities available with this unique property.”

How would you describe the home’s style or floor plan?

“This custom home has amazing views and natural light, a cathedral ceiling, clerestory windows, and an open floor plan with 2 story stone fireplace as the great room’s centerpiece. The kitchen features wood floors, oak cabinets and breakfast bar, making it perfect for entertaining guests. The informal dining room has lovely views and access the expansive wraparound deck for easy indoor/outdoor living. There are two bedrooms on the first floor: one with a private half bath, and the other with a full hall bath. The master ensuite is located on the second floor and has multiple closets, offering ample storage space. Enjoy even more living space in the finished, walkout lower level which includes a cozy pellet stove and lovely built-ins.

There is also plenty of room for all the outside “toys”. Move in ready, this home could be a peaceful primary residence or also be perfect as a second/vacation home for outdoor enthusiasts who value close proximity to lakes, skiing, hiking, trails and all the area offers. ”

Are there any unusual amenities?

“985 Midline Road is a rare property in that it can be easily subdivided (as there are 5 separate tax parcels) and has high visibility with frontage on two roads, making it a great investment (future or now – sellers are open to discussion). Vacant land…yes, farm with less acreage…yes! With multiple outbuildings, a rental/guest cottage and a driving range office building, there are many possibilities for home business, rental income and agriculture production. This unique property is centrally located to easily access Saratoga Springs, the North Country, Capital Region, I-90 and I-87.”

What’s your favorite thing about the property?

“I love taking a buyer through the wooded trails, fields and fenced pastures – it is peaceful and a wildlife paradise. Our schedules are so busy every day that I much prefer the serenity this property provides. Sit by the pond, stroll along the stream, watch the seasons change and feel the peace surround you. The barns and set up are ideal for a gentleperson’s farm, but also perfect to generate income with exciting, endless possibilities.

The main level of the home is on the 2nd floor – I love it! Natural light that bathes every space is phenomenal and the upper level master suite with its views and private bath are so inviting. The Adirondack decor of the guest cottage is so charming, there is so much to love about this property it is really hard to define my favorite thing!”
