The sweetest classic farmhouse

I just showed a home the other day I had to share with everyone!  This is a farmhouse in New Paltz and when I walked in with my buyers I just said "WOW"!  This house had really old charm and warmth, but with many new updates so someone can move right in!  It's also surrounded by the most beautiful apple orchards, (go ahead, pick your own...they are right out back)!  I have relatives that live near this home and they LOVE living there!  Here is the full listing!  Let me know if you want to  preview this.  I love showing it and am sure it will be sold SOON!

Calling Saratoga fans

and investors!  I have two really great properties on the market right now in Saratoga Springs, NY. 

I enjoy Thoroughbred racing and follow horses and trainers all year long.  Saratoga Racetrack is America's oldest sports venue and the "best six weeks of Summer" in August.  Being a racing fan, I like to be as close to the "action" as possible and always stay at a motel that is right across the street from the backstretch.  I like get up really early morning and watch trainer's morning workouts while the Daily Racing form broadcasts the "morning line' across the street from the motel. 

After the races I leave the track and head across the street from the motel to the Horseshoe Inn for the all night party with racing fans.

The owners of the motel have run the very successful motel for many years, but are now ready to leave it and pursue their true careers.  They are both very famous Opera singers and it is time for them to focus on Opera once again.

Here is the full listing.  It's really an investor's smartest dream to find a property this close to the most famous racetrack in the world...

The couple also owns a gallery space with stores and two apartments in Saratoga's hip and trendy art neighborhood.  This is a historic corner building that will definitely be a smart investment.  Here is that listing...

Sooooooooooo much happening around this weekend!

There really is just so much going on all weekend, and I am trying to take a break from Hudson valley Real estate to take part in some of it all!  Last night kicked off the O positive festival.  Kingston has really wild art all over the city, and great bands are playing all over midtown.  It's a really cool event where artists perform and create for free heath care, (what a concept)!  You can read all about it and see some of the amazing bands here on their site...

Fresh off the stage from opening last weekend's B-52's concert in town, The Lady Esther Gin kicked things off in the parade last night on her giant toy horse!

This article was just in the New York Times all about Kingston's scene...

Here is a super site for my city, Kingston, NY (NY's first capital)

http://www.kingstonnycalendar.org/

I am also involved with a exciting new project here in Kingston. The Kingston Digital Corridor, is a project for Realtors and city planners to market and brand Kingston as, "Brooklyn on the Hudson". We are trying to let people know that Kingston is a city very much like Brooklyn, but much more affordable! Please take a look at the site and project...

I am just getting back after being in Rio DeJanerio for six weeks. I try and post all my photos from being places on my Flickr page...
