Description

This well-maintained home and horse farm has everything one would want to start a hobby or horse farm. The 2004 Modular home is ready to go. It has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, equipped with a 1st-floor primary bedroom that includes 2 attached bathrooms as well as 2 closets. There is also a very large room that could be converted to 2 bedrooms with attached baths. Large custom windows really allow the light to shine in. A wide staircase gives access to additional storage or possible expansion of living space. This unfinished area on the second floor creates a blank canvas. Tall ceilings in the basement, along with the two bay garage, allow room for storage or even a shop. This oil fire boiler is set up with four separate heating zones. This home is beautiful and in great shape, and with minor changes could expand for larger families. The 36x72 barn with two added lean-tos, making it 60x72, is currently used for 7 horse stalls, hay, and equipment storage. It is very well constructed and thought out—full power and water, along with a separate well and septic. The tack room is furnished with a 1/2 bath that expands to full with a little work. If that is not enough room, a separate outbuilding is included and is 14x32. The land consists of 4 fenced paddocks and 1 riding area that have electric and water run to them. Additional land is used for hay production. Properties like this do not come up often; you will not want to wait to see what it has to offer. The possibilities of this property are endless while being located in the heart of the Leatherstocking Region of James Fenimore Cooper fame, and it is known for its robust whitetail deer population, wild turkey, grouse, and overall thriving wildlife population. While this is a secluded location, the village of Hartwick is 6 minutes away and a host of amenities only 20 minutes away in Cooperstown, including the National Baseball Hall of Fame, Cooperstown Dreams Park as well as shopping, hospital, gas and cultural attractions like the Fenimore Art Museum, Farmers Museum, Brewery Ommegang, and Glimmerglass Theatre. Outstanding fishing awaits nearby on Otsego Lake, 4046 acres of pristine water, with lake trout, walleye, and perch among many other species. The Glimmerglass State Park, with its public beach and picnic grounds, as well as fantastic water recreational activities. Oneonta is 30 minutes away, with Hartwick College and SUNY Oneonta, and the property is 3.25 hours from the George Washington Bridge/NYC. This very private location is still close to world-class amenities, a potential home/cabin site, a large natural pond, and beautiful woods.
