About This Home
Set atop a rise and surrounded by 16.43 acres of open land and mature trees, this residence offers privacy alongside long-range views of hills and a distant lake. A gated driveway winds past farmland to the house, which sits framed by woods and open sky.
Hardwood trim, a stone foundation, and a massive fireplace speak to the home's craftsmanship. Porches and decks look out over the landscape, while stone walls, perennial gardens, and connected stairways shape the grounds, leading to a small spring-fed lake stocked with bass.
Inside, skylights and tall windows bring in natural light over wide-plank floors and exposed beams. The eat-in kitchen opens to the living spaces and connects to a breakfast room, which adjoins a family room with a cathedral ceiling and fireplace. Five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a foyer, and first-floor laundry complete the floor plan.
Additional structures—including a detached garage with workshop, a studio or possible apartment, and multiple sheds—sit discreetly on the property. A stone and gravel turnaround driveway provides parking for four vehicles. The defining qualities of this estate are its expansive setting, profound quiet, and complete privacy—offering a rare opportunity to enjoy a spacious, comfortable home deeply connected to its natural surroundings only minutes from shopping and 20 minutes to Bassett Medical and everything Cooperstown has to offer.
