Tucked away on 38.4 acres of beautiful land, 420 May Road in Potsdam offers privacy, space, and a move-in ready home that blends comfort with functionality. This four-bedroom, three-bathroom home is set far back from the road, offering a peaceful setting with expansive outdoor space. Inside, you’ll find an open-concept floor plan filled with natural light, highlighted by a vaulted ceiling in the main living room that opens up to a screened-in porch and raised deck overlooking the private backyard. The remodeled kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, tile flooring, and stainless steel appliances, making it both stylish and functional. The main floor also includes a second living room, a half bathroom, and large coat closets conveniently located by both the two-story foyer and the entrance from the attached two-car garage. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite includes a walk-through closet and full en suite bathroom, while the additional bedrooms share a large main bathroom with laundry. The finished walkout basement adds even more living space, divided into two generous areas that offer flexibility for entertainment, hobbies, or possibly home office use. Step outside to enjoy the backyard’s stone patio areas—one featuring a pergola draped in grapevines that produce fruit annually—and a another with a cozy fire pit space perfect for gatherings. Built in 1996, this home offers the ideal combination of modern updates and room to roam both inside and out. Don’t miss your chance to own this private retreat just minutes from downtown. Please do not drive up the driveway without an appointment, thank you!
