This unique and super well-maintained home has so much on offer; the main split level home features 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths with an open concept main living space and spacious deck, an attached accessory unit apartment is ideal as an investment opportunity or for flex space for longer term guests, and the 5.12 acre parcel boasts rolling lawns, an open lower meadow and frontage on a water body. Entering from quiet, the town-maintained road, a pleasant wooded buffer then opens into manicured lawn areas, and the 1994 constructed and first time offered home sits nicely within the parcel, exhibiting attention to site design. The larger, right side portion of the home consists of an upper level with a connected kitchen-dining-living space, invitingly bright with natural light from the massive pictures windows and slider doors out to the deck. The pine tongue and groove ceilings and hardwood floors provide a classic feel, while eating peninsula, updated stainless appliances and the unified social space speak to a sense of modernity. This top level also has the primary bedroom and en-suite full bath. The lower level offers 2 additional bedrooms, another full bathroom, laundry nook, and more flexible space as a family room, game room, or office with doors out to the lower level deck. The left side of the home is a separate unit (one electric meter), with it's own entry, large eat-in kitchen, storage space, living room, and a bedroom with full bath. The land offers rolling lawn sections, perennial flowers, classic western Catskills wooded rocks and mixed deciduous trees, and the lower portion has frontage along a beaver pond. It would be possible to create a nice trail loop and sitting area with views over the pristine natural features and biodiversity. The location is just over 10 minutes to both Walton and Franklin, under 30 minutes to Delhi, Sidney and Oneonta, and is under 3 hours to metro NY. With plentiful recreational and cultural activities in the region, this could equally make for an ideal full time residence, second home with investment/guest unit, or 2 unit income opportunity.
