Seclusion and acreage in eastern New York

Greenfield offers seclusion and tons of acreage and recreation for nature enthusiasts and farmers while being only 5 miles from Saratoga Springs and 40 miles from Albany. “I moved here 20 years ago, and I really like the amount of privacy I get,” says Melissa Cartier, Realtor and Broker Owner of Cartier Real Estate Group, who has been selling homes in the area for 16 years. “It’s a beautiful, rural town where people have up to 30 acres between homes but can commute to Albany for work. It’s the best of both worlds.” Commuters head to Albany to work for major employers such as the Albany Medical Center and the University of Albany. Other large employers that are more central to the area include Shenendehowa Central School District and the Saratoga Hospital. Outdoor enthusiasts take advantage of the many waterfront areas in the neighborhood, like Saratoga Lake, Hudson River and Great Sacandaga Lake.
