NextImg:See inside a converted New York schoolhouse on sale for less than $300K

This Airbnb-ready charmer still has students’ names etched into its hand-blown glass windows.

Built in 1860, the former Elizaville Public Schoolhouse has been transformed into an adorable residential retreat.

Although its pitched roof and bitty bell tower still make it identifiable as its previous identity, this 163-year-old building has been extensively renovated to be more home than schoolhouse. 

Located in Elizaville, New York, the property listed for sale last week for $295,000 — and it has already been claimed, according to an Instagram account dedicated to the darling dwelling. 

“We’re officially under contract,” the account, The Upstate Schoolhouse, posted on an Insta Story Monday afternoon. “Which makes my heart break a little but we’re so thrilled for the next steward of this very special little schoolhouse.” 

At press time, the just over 700-square-foot home is still marked as being available on its listing page, where it’s represented by Annabel Taylor of Four Seasons Sotheby’s International Realty.

The quaint abode appears to be move-in or short term rental-ready, and with little room for extension: It’s set on just a quarter of an acre. 

At its steal of a price, though, it’s no wonder it was scooped off the market so quickly.

Inside, the structure features its original hardwood floors “imprinted with markings where desks used to sit,” according to the listing.

The kitchen — tucked next to the bathroom at the far end of the downstairs living area — is equipped with a gas stove, butcher block countertops, a farmhouse sink, a tiled backsplash and white cabinets above it, dark ones below, and gold handles on both. 

The living room has oodles of natural light from the windows on three sides and enough room for a large couch, a small dining table, a desk and an armoire.

The single bathroom and its tub are painted millennial pink, to match the exterior door, and is located on the far end of the ground level. 

Upstairs is the lofted bedroom area with a closet, a single window and a walkway. 

The address is located a 15-minute drive away from both Hudson and Rhinebeck, two popular Hudson Valley destinations, and two hours from New York City.
