This is my foray into the world of suburban house hunting and my endless battle with normalcy and sameness.

Built while Abraham Lincoln was President, this magnificant 1860 Historic Home is For Sale. New wiring, plumbing, sheet rock. Still work to do.

Replacement windows have been put INSIDE the home to maintain the original architectural windows. Eleven foot ceilings downstairs, ten foot ceilings upstairs! Corkscrew staircase with balcony. Entrance Foyer and more. Located in the Mohawk Valley with views of the Adirondack Mountains and Cherry Valley. Secluded area only 10 minutes to NYS Thruway. 15 Miles to Cooperstown, 1.25 hrs to Albany. A wonderful Country home within a newly established Amish Community. Small Amish School House next door. We are planning a house sale, unless purchaser would like to purchase the home furnished. A wonderful chance to own a glorious piece of history. Interior photo's will be added in the future. Possibilities of a Bed & Breakfast, or Country Inn. Something you would have to check in to. Home is being sold as is - will entertain CASH offers.…
What I love
For years as we enter the front door, our house just envelops you. It's a warm inviting home. We had many dreams for the place, but just didn't have the time. There is an original clapboard addition in dis-repair. You may want to save it or tear it out and make a nice walled garden. (A thought of ours) or a wonderful walled in In-ground pool would be wonderful! If you like seclusion and privacy this is the home for you. Even for a Summer Cottage get-a-way. We used to cross country ski in the winter and enjoy the summers as there is always a breeze.
Neighborhood Description
"On a clear day, you can see forever!" Literally, nothing blocking your view. Beautiful vistas from every room. All rooms of the house have corner windows facing two directions with the exception of the bathrooms. A house unlike any other. The area is totally quiet and DARK! You can see the stars as clear as anything. Aurora Borealis various times of the year - pretty spectacular actually.

Do you still own this home? My grandfather was born and raised in this very house. His grandfather married into the Snell family.
