Bucolic farmhouse surrounded by gorgeous vistas

Property Information

This home with 5 bedrooms and a large lawn is ideally situated on a knoll at the end of the last street in historic and artsy Cherry Valley. Though it’s only one mile from the center of town, it is fabulously surrounded by hundreds of acres of organically maintained hayfields with majestic views. The front half of the house was originally built in 1800 and now has a newly constructed south-facing porch. The original barn site has been reclaimed as a beautiful perennial flower and rock garden. The remaining two barns are still sound. The spacious dining room has the original wood floor while the generous living room and cozy library have newer hardwood floors. Both bathrooms have been recently renovated while retaining the character of hardwood floors. This home is also ideally located in the midst of the naturally scenic hills of Otsego County, and just 15 miles from the quaint county seat of Cooperstown, well-known as the “Home of Baseball”. However, the Cooperstown area has much more to offer, including a world-class opera, museums, shops, festivals, famed breweries, a major hospital, parks, and of course 9-mile-long Otsego Lake, the famous “Glimmerglass” written about so well by James Fenimore Cooper.
