MILLERTON -— After sitting dormant for nearly six years, Millerton’s “Old Village Hall” has a new owner. Sold on June 20 for $255,000 — more than $5,000 above the original listing price — the transaction marks a new chapter for a building steeped in local history.

The property, listed in February by Arleen Shepley of Elyse Harney Real Estate, had previously been managed by the Village without an agent. According to Millerton Mayor Jenn Najdek, that approach proved time-consuming and generated little interest. With a professional listing in place, the sale closed in just under five months for the vacant property located at 21 Dutchess Ave.
