Small building on Millerton Main Street sets town record for price per square foot

MILLERTON — September was a busy, interesting month for real estate activity in the Village of Millerton and the surrounding Town of North East. In the Village the North East Community Center purchased the former 3.7 acre Overlook site, which connects to the former Millerton Elementary School it was given in 2023, for $200,000. “NECC is in the midst of determining what our next steps are going to be,” NECC Executive Director Christine Sergent said. Mercantile Millerton Holdings purchased 5 Main St. to expand the programs and activities of the Madrose Gallery next door. The smallest building in the Village, only 389 square feet, 8 John St. on .01 acres of land, was sold for $165,000 — a village record of $447 per square foot. The remaining Village property transferred was a two-family residence located on Central Avenue.

The four Town transfers were similarly varied including one mobile home, one log cabin, one foreclosure and 36 acres of land.
