638 Miner Street Rd Canton, NY 13617

Just 3.3 miles from Main Street, Canton, this mostly updated 3-4 bed, 2 bath, circa 1900 farmhouse on 12 acres provides a peaceful view of the backyard pond and Captain Cook, the long-time resident great blue heron. Enter through the enclosed side porch straight into the open kitchen-dining area. Here, you will find custom birch-cherry cabinetry, a new Quadra-fire woodstove, and refinished original hardwood floors. A sliding glass door opens to the back yard, offering a view of a charming perennial garden and the pond. A Bosch dishwasher and installed counter-top water filter system are among the appliances that will convey with the property. An inlaid granite compass points the way through a doorway to the hall passage to the rest of the main floor. To the right, find the sunny master suite with its new closet, signature custom double vanity, and stone tile bathroom floor. To the left, pass the main bath-laundry room and its deep corner tub on the way to the recently restored, spacious living room. Plentiful windows, a lovely wood ceiling, and cushioned carpet create an inviting and comfortable space. Open doors to the cellar, new electric panel easily at hand, enclosed side porch, waiting to be finished, and concrete front patio. From this room, the hickory staircase leads to the newly restored wide plank floors of the upstairs landing and the railing, custom made by the current owner from up-cycled SLU dorm bed frames. The first upstairs bedroom has been recently carpeted and painted for use as a nursery. The other two upstairs rooms, with their vaulted ceilings and original, painted floors could be used for bedrooms or studios. Outside, there is a garage/shop, concrete silo, and barn foundation. An additional 18.6 acres are available for a total price of $132,000. There are many love-at-first-sight features in this house and a few spaces that are waiting for the new owners to reclaim. If you are looking for country living with convenient access to the village of Canton, SLU, or SUNY Canton, this might be just the house for you.
