Residential Land for Sale in Fort Plain, New York

Historic Jewel of the Mohawk Valley Built in 1835 and owned by the same family for over a century, this landmark property stands as a cornerstone of the Fort Plain community. A true architectural treasure of the Erie Canal era, it has been meticulously maintained and preserved throughout generations. The iconic clock tower, commissioned and still cared for by the Town of Fort Plain, crowns this masterpiece - a timeless reminder of the town's heritage. Originally constructed as the Montgomery Hall Hotel to serve canal builders, this storied building has also housed the Farmers and Merchants Bank, a post office, and a Masonic Temple. Inside, craftsmanship shines at every turn: mahogany doors and woodwork, ornate bannisters, and decorative ceilings and entryways that reflect the artistry of a bygone era. Modern updates complement its history, including a rebuilt furnace/boiler (2013) and new electrical systems and separate meters, along with energy-efficient double-pane thermal windows. An 8-car parking lot on an adjacent parcel is included. The property offers two storefronts on the ground level and four apartments above.
