located between Saratoga Springs and Clifton Park, has a
growing business district with many great antique stores.
You’ll find a handful of shops on Milton Avenue, and many
others tucked away on side streets in historic buildings.
Ballston Spa is a great daytrip destination – you can walk
from shop to shop, admire unique Victorian architecture,
and enjoy the many other businesses and restaurants the
village has to offer.
When antiquing, you never know what you’ll find. But in
Ballston Spa, you’re sure to encounter a wide variety of
furniture, artwork, collectibles and glassware, among other
dated treasures, and no antiquing trip to the village
excludes conversation with the many knowledgeable shop
owners and dealers who passionately display their antiques.
You’ll find that Ballston Spa has a unique antiquing com-
munity, and plenty to offer families and collectors, or any-
one looking to enjoy a fun daytrip or explore a historic
village.
“Having a lot of antique stores in one place makes it
appealing and affordable for people to go from one shop to
the next,” said Lesley Ann Lewis, owner of Stone Soup
Antiques Gallery.
