Description
For your consideration, an opportunity to own a Village of Altamont landmark with over 250 years of history -- the historic Severson House. Long before Altamont was established, early settler Jurrian Severson made his home on this land. His family farm appears on a 1767 map of the West Manor of Rensselaerswyck documenting the property's roots in the area's earliest settlement. The home is currently configured as a two-family residence, offering 6 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, and original wide-plank wood flooring throughout the first floors. The original section features 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, old wood interior doors. The adjoining residence offers 3 bedrooms and 1 bath, with new sheetrock, windows, and electrical updates. Additional features include open hearth fireplace, enclosed rear porch providing access to both residences, and a 2-car garage for each side. The property offers the flexibility to continue as a two-family, accommodate extended family, or convert it into one spacious single-family home. This is a property with a remarkable past and plenty of possibilities for its future. SOLD AS-IS.
