1875 original schoolhouse in Rosendale NY

This 1875 original schoolhouse sits on a half-acre and offers a truly unique chance to bring a storied property back to life. While it once spanned around 6,000 square feet and housed several apartments (and an artists studio), a 2005 fire affected the wooden addition and part of the roof. However, the beautiful brickwork in a classic American bond pattern, the high ceilings, and the traditional king post roof truss construction up in the attic all remain as a testament to its heritage. The property features a drilled well and a septic leach field, and it's perched on a high bank in this sleepy hamlet along the Rondout Creek, offering both a serene country setting and peace of mind from flooding concerns. Plus, you're just four miles from Rosendale and five miles to Kingston, blending quiet rural charm with convenient access to town. In short, you're not just buying a building—you're giving a historic landmark a second chance at life! 8 School House Lane, Rosendale, NY 12472 https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/8-...
