Featured Property:

Mint condition Ranch located at 38 Poplar Hill Road Binghamton, NY (Town of Chenango).

If you did not care what it cost and simply wanted the finest - this is the house you would build! A home that makes all others appear plain by comparison. The only thing not impressive about this outstanding home is the price. With features and amenities typically found only found in the most expensive homes, you will appreciate the quality of this special residence.

With a gourmet kitchen that will put those featured in magazines to shame, the bright and airy culinary center will turn any chef green with envy. From the magnificent island to the built-in appliances, Sub-Zero refrigerator and plentiful counter and cabinet space, this is truly a cook's delight!

If you can pull yourself away from the kitchen you have always dreamed about, you will face the difficulty of deciding where to spend your time.

You can entertain your guests and family in the open formal dining area or relax in the living room where the fireplace will keep those cooler days and nights warm and toasty. You could take a break and escape to the den/office or step out onto the deck and enjoy the privacy of the lushly landscaped backyard - kind of like having your own park! Can't decide whether you want to stay in or go outside? The screened porch is the perfect place to hang out. If the weather gets a little to warm, retreat back into the house and keep cool with the central air conditioning.

Wandering through your home will be such a joy because everything is just so beautiful: gleaming hardwood floors, one level living, gorgeous owner's suite, 3 bedrooms (and the den), mint condition bathrooms, built-in bookcases, strategic lighting throughout and don't miss the maintenance free stone exterior.

There is a full basement with loads of storage space all ready for your ideas for creative uses, a workshop area and a double car garage.
Meticulously maintained, this is the finest home in the area for the money. Located in the Chenango Valley School District, the location is so convenient with Interstates 81 and 88 and Front Street shopping all less then 4 minutes from the house.
Words and photos cannot truly describe just how wonderful this fine home is. A personal visit is the best way to appreciate how special this property is. Make an appointment soon to see what so many have always wished they could have. Call Karen Templeman at (607) 727-7600. Available for $224,900. View a Virtual Tour by clicking here.

Interested in a career in real estate sales?

The TemplemanTeam is expanding!

  • Did you know that some of the most successful agents came from businesses and jobs that were not even related to real estate?
  • Did you know that you may possess talents similar to our most successful agents and not even be aware of it?
  • Did you know that the majority of people in the United States are in the wrong job and languish in day to day work?
Every year, thousands of people start a new career in real estate sales. Many of them experience success almost immediately. They gain traction quickly, naturally connect with the work and earn a very good living. Others struggle and some even leave the business after only a short period. They spend their valuable time and resources getting a real estate license, setting up their business, and putting forth their best effort. Even with great support and training, if they do not have what it takes to be successful in the real estate business, they will struggle accomplishing even mediocre success.

Have you ever wondered why this happens? We have. In studying hundreds of agents in an attempt to quantify this elusive phenomenon, we have discovered that there is often key criterion for success. While each person has a unique blend of characteristics necessary for success, have you ever wondered if you may possess some of the traits found in other successful agents? Now you can compare yourself to others with a simple and quick evaluation tool that uses simulation technology to recreate the real-life challenges that real estate agents encounter on a daily basis. You can try it out by clicking here. When prompted to answer the question "Where did you hear about the Real Estate Simulator?", just select "Agent-Referred by" and then type in my name (Randy). Thanks and have fun!! For a personal, confidential interview, call us at 785-8585.
