Charming 1850 Cape Cod nestled in the Hamlet of Fly Creek, New York. The period front entrance, a portico, is typical for the cape cod style house. The architectural feature consists of a small roof extending over the front door. This portico is enclosed, as is seen in the north. The formal living room has built-ins and leads to a lovely covered, private exterior terrace trimmed in perennials and annuals. The formal dining room offers a period built-in and a corner hutch. The kitchen is bright and extends into a separate office space and an oversized mudroom with laundry, pantry and rear door to the gardens and back lawn. A primary bedroom is on the main floor, with ample closet space. The first floor has the full bath with single sink and full tub/shower. The floors are original hardwood throughout. The second floor has two additional bedrooms with great closets. The potential for expansion on the second level is tremendous. A shed dormer to the north would allow for full bathroom. The property has lovely gardens and expands far to the rear with a large two-story barn. Ten minutes into the historical village of Cooperstown and all the shops, restaurants, museums and regional delights. The village is at the mouth of the Susquehanna River which empties into the Chesapeake Bay. The Glimmerglass Opera Festival is home to world renowned entertainers and events in the summer season. This home is is the Cooperstown Central School District. Walking distance to the Fly Creek Post Office, the Fly Creek General Store and the famous Fly Creek Cider Mill, still being maintained and run by the original family. Easy north commute to Utica and south commute to Oneonta. Fabulous location.
