Property Description
OPEN HOUSE ~ Saturday May 10, 12pm - 2pmThe Gillet farmhouse was built by Charles Gillet in 1878. His son, Howard and wife Cara lived there until 1953. A larger farm at the time, they grew Gladiolus from 1935-1953, selling the bulbs nationally and internationally. Howard, a locally famous photographer, created hundreds of postcards that may even be found in the possession of collectors today. There is a scrapbook with the history that conveys with the house.Today the home sits proud on the hill above West Street, facing east and is surrounded by mature landscaping, a pond, and a small garden plot. Woods rise behind the house and a meadow sits at the top of the 4 acre lot. The 2328 square foot house features 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, plus a den on the 1st floor that could serve as a first floor bedroom. The formal front parlor was opened up into a large living room that flows to the dining room. A fireplace with wood stove insert provides supplemental heat and the chimney just received its annual cleaning. The sunroom addition and kitchen features vaulted ceilings, skylights and lots of light. There is a small mudroom that leads out to a lovely patio area. Across the driveway sits the pond and garden. You'll find original trim, doors, interior shutters, wood floors throughout the house. The kitchen features an antique Acorn stove. A walk up attic provides plenty of storage space and potential to expand the finished living space. Outbuildings include a detached 2 car garage, large wood shed, and a potting shed dating back to the Gladiolus farm. Right down the street you'll find the New Lebanon Farmers Market & Grocery and Blueberry Hill Market Cafe14 min drive to Jiminy Peak; 20 min to Pittsfield or Chatham; 36 min to Albany
