Property Description
Discover a rare Cooperstown Lake View treasure on 11+ private acres, located on the east side of Otsego Lake, where rolling hills meet shimmering waters. This remarkable two-home estate, a thriving seasonal B&B from 2001-2023, plus two summers of Dreams Park Rentals and Airbnb, offers unparalleled versatility as a luxury rental property, family retreat, or private residence. The original home, built in 1988 with pine and oak floors, features 5 bedrooms, including a first-floor suite, an open kitchen, a large dining area with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the lake, and an inviting living room with a wood-burning fireplace. This home is heated with electric baseboard heat, providing cozy comfort throughout. The 2010 log-faced addition has radiant floor heating throughout, central AC, and a geothermal system; two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms that include jacuzzi tubs; French doors that lead to private decks; and a view of the lake. A loft, currently used as a home office, overlooks the open living room, which features a striking stone wood-burning fireplace and a gourmet kitchen. Cherry hardwood floors, a stunning antler chandelier, a Tiffany-style stairway chandelier, Tiffany fixtures, and 6 ceiling fans add warmth and character throughout. The two homes are conveniently connected, creating a seamless flow between the original residence and the addition. Finished basements in both homes include bonus rooms ideal for offices or fitness areas, additional sleeping space, and a full kitchenette in the addition. 6 of the 7 bedrooms boast a private bath, with propane fireplaces in all but one, providing convenient, instant warmth and a cozy ambiance. Almost all bedrooms have balconies overlooking the lake, ensuring every guest or family member enjoys serene views and comfort. A whole-house generator and high-speed internet enhance everyday convenience. Expansive windows and a skylight fill the home with abundant natural light, enhancing the warmth and beauty of the interior spaces. The property features 3 Jacuzzi tubs plus one 2-person soaking tub, two ponds, walking trails, a potting shed, a garden shed, a carport, and a two-car garage. Sunsets over the lake, framed by surrounding hills, create a daily spectacle that can be enjoyed from multiple balconies or quiet corners of the estate. Just minutes from the Historic Village of Cooperstown and the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, residents enjoy charming shops, fine dining, and cultural attractions, while the estate itself offers privacy and the peaceful rhythm of lakeside living. The scenic fairways of Leatherstocking Golf Course trace the lake's edge, while the Fenimore Art Museum and the acclaimed Glimmerglass Festival enrich the area's cultural landscape. Glimmerglass State Park offers hiking trails, bike paths, fishing, picnic areas, a beach, and seasonal events. With expansive acreage, breathtaking vistas, and exceptional interior features, this property presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of Cooperstown's most coveted lifestyle, where every day feels like a retreat. Lovingly cared for and meticulously maintained, this exceptional property is ready for its next owner to enjoy, appreciate, and create lasting memories.
