1570 Eaton Corners Rd, Duanesburg, NY 12053

The beautiful Eaton Homestead at 1570 Eatons Corners Road in Duanesburg, N.Y. is an authentic slice of Americana. Completed in 1803, the original three-bay colonial built in the Federal style has been augmented and upgraded through the years, and now features a host of modern amenities to complement its classic character. A modern family room addition built in 2003 includes a fireplace constructed with genuine post-Revolutionary War bricks and rafters dating to the early 19th Century, while also sporting state of the art in-wall surround sound speakers for the entertainment center. Two other rooms also feature working fireplaces, while the original wide-board hardwood floors add an air of rustic elegance. The family room addition, newly plastered walls, upgraded and modernized plumbing and electrical systems, new windows and a new well pump are all the result of over $500,000 invested in the home over the last 25 years. Sited on a stunning property studded with valuable black walnut trees, and with ample additional utility space in several exterior structures -- and plenty of space to build more if desired -- the Eaton Homestead is a must-see for anyone thinking of living a more laid-back lifestyle. With Bowman’s Creek threading through the property, it truly is a place where “the river runs through it.”
