Move-in ready three-bedroom, two-full-bath ranch in the heart of Colonie, tucked into a quiet neighborhood right off Albany Shaker Road and Osborne Road. The hardwood floors have been refinished and the entire interior freshly painted -- the work is done. What sets this one apart from a standard ranch is the expanded addition across the back: a generous family room that opens onto a deck overlooking a private, fully fenced yard. Real everyday living space and real outdoor space, both on one level. Three bedrooms, two full baths, and an attached one-car garage complete the picture.

Buyers come to this part of Colonie for three reasons: the schools, the taxes, and the location. Students attend the South Colonie Central School District. Town of Colonie tax rates keep the total monthly cost of ownership sensible, with low annual taxes. And the location is hard to beat: minutes from Albany International Airport, Colonie Center, the Wolf Road corridor, and Northway (I-87) access, with a short, predictable commute to Albany Med, the Harriman State Office Campus, and downtown Albany, plus an easy run north to GlobalFoundries in Malta. Everyday errands, dining, and shopping are all within a few minutes' drive. One-level living, a fenced yard, refinished hardwood, South Colonie schools, Colonie taxes, and a central Albany Shaker Road location -- a combination that doesn't come up often at this size.
