The village of Ballston Spa, 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 community, and plenty to offer families and collectors, or anyone 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. 80 | Simply Saratoga
