About this home
Welcome to a truly rare and inspiring retreat in the award-winning Voorheesville School District. Located in the hamlet of East Berne, this haven is nestled among a breathtaking 8.96-acres of multiple parcels with sweeping vistas of the Helderberg Mountains and the Albany skyline, offering exceptional privacy, versatility, and a true sense of escape.
The main residence features a warm Adirondack-style interior highlighted by extensive cherry wood throughout, while the contemporary exterior blends seamlessly into the natural landscape. The home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 2,601 sq ft of inviting living space. An expansive great room showcases a dramatic wall of windows and sliders that frame the stunning scenery, complemented by an original stone fireplace, cathedral ceilings, and exposed beams. The second-floor primary suite spans the length of the home and includes a sitting area, spa-like bath with soaking tub and walk-in shower, and a private deck overlooking the mountain and city backdrop. A spacious two-tier rear deck provides an ideal setting for entertaining or quiet relaxation.
Steeped in local history, the barn was originally built to host clam bakes & weddings and now serves as a recreation/studio with an attached seasonal cottage offering approximately 746 sq ft, including 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths--perfect for rental income, guests, extended family, or a creative retreat. The barn also offers potential for conversion to additional living or studio space. The included 7.13-acre parcel on Wolf Hill Road preserves the iconic Helderberg escarpment views and enhances privacy along with an adjacent 1 acre lot.
Enjoy water access and own dock on Helderberg Lake via deeded easement. Close proximity to Thacher Park, nearby lakes, Albany, and NYC. With low taxes, remarkable surroundings, and unmatched flexibility, this property is ideal as a multi-generational retreat, family compound, or serene getaway.
