6 Eileen Drive, East Greenbush, NY

About 6 Eileen Drive

Living and working in Albany comes with the architectural advantages of having an enduring historical legacy and if you imagine yourself ensconced in a Victorian era Italianate as if you are living in a Henry James novel, then this listing is perfect for you. This gorgeous 1860's residence, situated on a generous 1.5 acre lot, vaunting nearly 4200 square feet of living space with soaring ceiling heights throughout, breathtaking French windows with historic wobbly glass, hardwood floors, 6 marble fireplace mantles and so many more exquisite details, is fully restored to preservation standards. There are 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms with scale to grow and the kitchen is pleasantly renovated with room for a breakfast table. Roam from room to room in evening attire or bring in an Upstate rural design firm to bring the halls down to a human scale and claim the manse as your own. East Greenbush isn't just a neighbor to Albany; it is considered a preferred residential partner located just 5 miles across the Hudson River, and residents enjoy a 10-minute drive to downtown Albany. You get the peace of a leafy suburb without the typical ''commuter fatigue.'' East Greenbush serves as a gateway. It offers immediate access to I-90, which connects you to the New York State Thruway, and is only 5 miles from the Albany-Rensselaer Amtrak Station--one of the busiest rail hubs in the country.
