Cooperstown NY Home for Sale

[If potential buyers wish to visit or make an offer on this home through a buyer's agent (licensed broker) seller will pay buyer's agent 3% commission upon closing if sale is accomplished through buyer's agent.]This is a very unique, serene home. It has privacy, lake rights, and is still walking distance to everything in the Village of Cooperstown (including the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Bassett Hospital)! The home comes with a double lot that backs up to beautiful hiking and cross-country skiing trails. As a Lakeland Shores homeowner, you will share in .33 acres of direct lake frontage with picnic area, beach, boat dock, kayak/paddleboard/canoe storage, and wonderful views across the lake to Lakefront Marina, the Otesaga Hotel, and Leatherstocking Golf Course. (There is NO homeowners association that governs the home: just the shared lakefront property.) This mid-century modern home has large windows, vaulted ceilings, and is ideal for those who love living surrounded by nature. It has multiple decks and stone seating areas with views of the forest and/or partial lake views. The front door leads into an open entry area with slate floor and full-height staircase that leads to two different living levels. On the upper floor is a large living room with vaulted, beamed ceilings, the kitchen, a dining room (and/or office), the master bedroom and bath, and a 3-season (mud/sun) room. Down a few stairs is a family room with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and sliding door to a small balcony. On the ground floor are two additional bedrooms, a bathroom, and the utility room with washer/dryer (boiler system, additional shelving, etc.). The house has many closets and copious storage space. The heated garage can accommodate two cars. Drink your coffee by the lake and watch the sunrise or set. Swim or kayak whenever you want! Walk to restaurants and shops, Stagecoach Coffee, outdoor concerts at the Lakefront, and much more! Hike and cross-country ski without getting in a car. Attend the Glimmerglass Opera, only 20-25 minutes' drive around the lake. Live in nature on land that has been kept free for at least six years of synthetic pesticides and fertilizers. House is in great demand by renters and is located within the Cooperstown School District.
