Property Description
Set within the scenic countryside of Hoosick Falls, this inviting property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy privacy, natural beauty, and small-town charm. Located in the quiet Mapletown area--one of the historic hamlets within the Town of Hoosick--this residence is surrounded by rolling hills, open skies, and the tranquil character that defines Upstate New York living.
Positioned on two lots of more than 17 acres, an ideal setting for a primary residence, weekend escape, or investment property. The surrounding landscape provides a sense of seclusion while still offering convenient access to nearby amenities, regional routes, and neighboring communities in both New York and Vermont. The home benefits from efficient geothermal heating, complemented by updated HVAC systems and recent mechanical improvements, delivering year-round comfort with modern reliability. These thoughtful upgrades enhance both livability and operational efficiency.
Hoosick Falls is a historic village of approximately 3,200 residents, known for its rich heritage and revitalized downtown district. Originally settled in the 1700s, the area grew around the Hoosic River, where early mills powered a thriving industrial community. Over the decades these very hills inspired literary luminaries Shirley Jackson, Donna Tartt, and Brett Easton Ellis''. Today, the village blends history with a growing arts and cultural presence, including galleries, local eateries, and restored 19th- and early 20th-century architecture. The area is also associated with famed American folk artist Grandma Moses, whose legacy remains a point of pride in the community.
Outdoor enthusiasts benefit from proximity to the surrounding mountains and valleys, while the nearby Bennington College and Battlefield--site of a pivotal Revolutionary War engagement--adds historical significance to the region.
With a strong sense of community, recreational amenities, and a slower pace of life, Hoosick Falls offers a compelling alternative to more densely populated areas while remaining within reach of Albany, Saratoga, and Vermont destinations.
A Unique Opportunity
31 Mapletown Road represents the essence of Upstate living--space, quiet, and connection to both history and nature. Whether envisioned as a serene escape or a long-term residence, this property offers a rare chance to establish a foothold in one of New York's most character-rich rural communities.
