Property Description
Hawthorne Farms is an exceptional historic country property encompassing approximately 82 acres in the Helderberg countryside. Set on a country road, this remarkable property offers a rare combination of character, privacy, usable acreage, and well-maintained improvements. The 1889 homestead is complemented by an authentic antique barn with electricity and water, poultry barn, large workshop, an attached heated drive-under garage featuring oversized garage doors--ideal for vehicles, equipment, hobbies, or substantial storage. The home offers an especially appealing layout with a large eat in kitchen, ample dining open to living room with stone fireplace and vaulted ceilings, opportunity for two primary bedrooms on the first floor, each with its own en-suite bathroom, and walk in closets, providing flexibility for guests, multigenerational living, or comfortable single-level living. Recent improvements include a roof less than 10 years old, new furnace, new central air conditioning, updated bathrooms, and numerous thoughtful upgrades. The property has been meticulously maintained while retaining the character and authenticity that make it special. Located near Warners Lake and the Helderberg landscape, with easy access to Thacher State Park and surrounding communities, the property feels wonderfully removed while remaining within close reach of Albany and the Capital Region. The four adjoining lots total approximately 82 acres, offering room to create a family compound, establish agricultural or recreational uses, or simply preserve the land for future plans. With open views, quiet surroundings, substantial outbuildings, and a wealth of possibilities, this is a property with both history and long-term potential. This combination of historic architecture and land is an increasingly rare find in the Capital Region. A historic home. Country views. Authentic barn. Outbuildings galore. Four lots. 82 acres. A truly special piece of the Helderberg countryside.
