Set on two parcels totaling 1.36 acres, this spacious Cooperstown property offers a rare combination of privacy, outdoor space, and convenient village living. Tucked away in a peaceful setting yet just a short walk from the hospital, schools, stores, and everyday amenities, the location is exceptionally practical. The approximately 2,738-square-foot, four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath home offers generous living space and the character and proportions of a classic Cooperstown residence. The property includes an attached garage with ample grounds providing flexibility for gardening, recreation, entertaining, or simply enjoying the privacy of your own space. The two-parcel configuration and 1.36-acre setting are particularly appealing in the village, offering a sense of country privacy without sacrificing the convenience of being close to everything. A welcoming wraparound porch offers the perfect place to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The private backyard is truly a peaceful garden sanctuary, featuring beautiful stone walls, a tranquil koi pond, and a charming waterfall. The soothing sound of cascading water creates a relaxing backdrop for outdoor gatherings or quiet moments in nature. Thoughtfully renovated in 2007, the kitchen combines functionality with timeless appeal. Silestone countertops provide generous workspace, complemented by a gas cooktop, wall oven, and microwave. A center island with seating creates an inviting gathering spot while offering valuable additional cupboard storage. Designed for everyday living and entertaining, this well-appointed kitchen remains a practical and welcoming heart of the home. The home's inviting layout offers a natural flow from room to room, creating an easy and comfortable setting for everyday living and entertaining. Cherry hardwood floors add warmth and character throughout the living spaces, while a new pellet stove in the living room provides an especially cozy gathering place during the cooler months. The formal dining room provides a warm and inviting space for family dinners, holiday gatherings, and entertaining. The family room opens directly to the private backyard sanctuary. It's a relaxing setting for morning coffee, gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying the property's privacy. A conveniently located first-floor laundry room and half bath add to the home's livability and ease of use. Ample closet space is available throughout the home. The 2nd floor primary bedroom offers a comfortable private space, complete with its own full bathroom and a generously sized walk-in closet. Thoughtfully arranged for both comfort and convenience, the suite provides a relaxing space to unwind. One of the 3 other good-sized bedrooms upstairs offers a distinctive and versatile retreat, featuring its own private sitting area with a propane fireplace. A walkway from this space leads directly to the backyard, creating an inviting connection between the interior and the property's peaceful outdoor setting. This flexible space could easily serve as a guest suite, reading room, home office, or cozy private retreat. The home's exterior has been thoughtfully maintained, with Hardi Board cement siding and 50-year architectural shingles, both installed in 2008. These durable improvements provide lasting protection, complement the home's classic character, and reduce the need for near-term exterior updates. A substantial village property with privacy, space, and an exceptionally convenient location-just minutes from the best of Cooperstown.
