Beyond it's aesthetic beauty, this residence is situated prominently upon over 1.6 acres of land, effectively offering one of the largest parcels in the Village of Athens. Boasting over 4,300SF of interior space, in addition to a charming and spacious matching carriage house, located at the rear of the property, this is rare opportunity to own an incomparable piece of Hudson Valley history along one of Athens' most sought-after and visually-striking streets.
