Discover the possibilities with this real estate opportunity located in the town of Hamden in the great Catskill Mountain region. Originally built back in the 1800s as a one-room schoolhouse, the charismatic structure was converted to an elemental residence in the mid-1900s after the last classes held here were dismissed around 1940. This sweet cottage offers a ton of potential with an efficient kitchenette, full bathroom with clawfoot bathtub, and spacious main living area with wood floors and wall of windows featuring views of the surrounding countryside. There is an attached one-car garage, as well as a large shed (said to have been built in 1858) for storage. The setting is incredibly scenic, backed by a sweet stream. As a bonus, the land also adjoins over 170 acres of DEP Watershed land for light recreation - including hiking and hunting. The property is selling as is with most of its contents included.
