A Second Home in Saratoga Springs, NY

Have you been considering a second home? Saratoga Springs is a great choice for anyone who loves a small city with lots of fine dining, a charming downtown convenient for strolling or the excitement of horse racing. Saratoga has quickly become a destination city. The city offers a variety of home choices. You can purchase an updated single family home within walking distance to Broadway, a fixer upper on the West side in the Art District or a upscale maintenance-free condominium where you can step out of your door right onto Broadway…

Let’s talk about dining because we all love to eat! Saratoga has a wide variety of restaurants to enjoy. Sit on the patio at Wheatfields or The Grey Gelding and people watch. Enjoy the ambiance of Chianti or Forno and enjoy some great food! Have a sandwich at Scallions or The Stadium. Whatever you are looking for, it is here. Want to have an appetizer and a couple of glasses of wine? The Wine Bar is for you!

Shopping your thing? Stroll down Broadway and let your man sit outside on a bench while you browse the shops. Pick a special top or a fun handmade piece of jewelry at Aggies, buy a new pair of shoes at Saratoga Shoe Depot or maybe a Equine themed print at the Frankie Flores Studio.

Ok… since Real Estate is my thing, let’s finish with that. The East side of Saratoga has for a long time been the place to be… while that is not so much the case anymore it is still the place to find a charming older home. Do you enjoy the beauty of fine woodwork or maybe a classic wrap around porch? Even the new homes being built here feel as though they have been here forever. You have all the convenience of a modern home with the beauty of an older home.

The West side has been built up in recent years and boasts more new homes. There are some new neighborhoods and some fun restaurants! You can pick a lot and have a home built to your standards.

Saratoga Lake is just a 5 minute drive if the lake is your thing. Prices vary significantly depending on if you want a house right on the lake or a small camp that you can fix up.

Condos, condos, and more condos! Saratoga boast some new projects like 38 High Rock, a great project adjacent to a hotel so you can enjoy the concierge, pool and fitness center and a convenient place for your guests to stay! Park Place overlooks Congress Park and has chandeliers and pianos in the lobby… The Lofts has an amazing “wall of water” and a doorman! We also have “Condo Alley” which is full of great upscale condos and where I am lucky enough to have an office… You can rent your condo if there are times when you won’t be using it. Summer rentals are popular and can put some nice cash in your pocket. Saratoga is no longer the August or Summer Place to Be, it is THE PLACE TO BE!
