  That house looks big enough for a very spacious office. Google says it's a 6:30 drive to NY, which is no Valley, but should present enough opportunities. One could get up early and be there by noon, for meetings or whatever. What kind of maintenance fees would one be looking at, with a house that size?

    Taxes in Upstate NY are going to be high. But keep in mind that central and western NY are depressing places. The place peakedin the 50's with industrial, rilroad and defense industries that are long gone. The city of Buffalo demolishes 2 houses a day. It was a city of 600,000, now down to 250,000. A nice $50k house in Schenectady, NY (former industrial city 3 hours from NYC) has $5000/year taxes. The house is worth 10x the Jamestown house because of the proximity to state government (150k jobs). If you want to live in the country, lots of cheap houses in rural towns <2 hours from NYC.
