26 Hillcrest Road offers the kind of character, space and location that is getting harder to find in the heart of Latham. Set in the North Colonie School District, this well-kept 2-bedroom home features beautiful hardwood floors throughout much of the living space, a spacious living room centered around a wood-burning fireplace, and a bright formal dining room with plenty of room for everyday meals or entertaining. The kitchen has been refreshed with new counters and Pergo flooring, while still keeping the charm of the home intact. Upstairs, both bedrooms offer hardwood floors and comfortable proportions, along with a full bath. An enclosed rear porch adds another flexible space overlooking the backyard and works well as a mudroom, sitting area or seasonal retreat. Downstairs, the full basement provides excellent storage, laundry space and direct access to the yard, with additional potential depending on how the next owner chooses to use it. Outside is one of the property's best features: a large, level backyard with plenty of room to entertain, garden, play or simply enjoy the space. Recent improvements include Comfort windows installed in 2023, a new hot water heater in 2026, new kitchen counters and Pergo flooring in 2026. Public water, public sewer and natural gas add to the practicality. All of this sits in an established Latham neighborhood just minutes from shopping, dining, schools and major commuting routes. A solid home with real character, meaningful updates and a yard you can actually use!
