Cottage charm meets Adirondack calm in the heart of Hadley. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end village street, this inviting cottage delivers privacy, character, and thoughtful upgrades that make it truly special. A new metal roof (2024) and on-demand hot water set the tone for smart improvements already in place. Upstairs, the home has been transformed into a private primary suite, fully updated and plumbed for an additional bathroom, with a delightful surprise walk-in closet that adds both function and flair. Downstairs, you'll find a cozy kitchen and living area, a new full bath, and a fun enclosed porch that easily flexes as a second bedroom, home office, or bonus space. A cesspool and dry well are in place for the septic system, with an easement estimated at $6-8K for future replacement if desired. Parking is available across the street, with additional parking possible by arrangement with a neighboring property. While the lot itself is modest, the setting more than delivers--peaceful, village-level quiet with close proximity to the Sacandaga River and the natural beauty that defines life in Hadley. Small footprint. Big personality. A perfect Adirondack escape with updates already done.
