#1205 - Cooperstown (Otsego County). Stunning location, surrounded by well-kept clean country estates, and it sports super views, a hay meadow, and a large private pond for fishing or skinny-dipping. And its landscaped, with a southern exposure, and very private - with Cooperstown schools and mailing address. We challenge you to find this elsewhere under $300000 - yet we ask just $149000, half of that.
There are 2 established home sites, each with their own drilled well and septic. The total property size is 11.19 acres, but at the right price the owners would consider splitting a few acres off with the site by the road. The main site has buildings located nearly 1000 off the road and it overlooks the pond. There is a horse barn, roughly 16x20, used as a run-in shed. Fencing stays, but any gates will be removed. A camper in decent shape has electric and is right by the pond. It has a ...
There are 2 established home sites, each with their own drilled well and septic. The total property size is 11.19 acres, but at the right price the owners would consider splitting a few acres off with the site by the road. The main site has buildings located nearly 1000 off the road and it overlooks the pond. There is a horse barn, roughly 16x20, used as a run-in shed. Fencing stays, but any gates will be removed. A camper in decent shape has electric and is right by the pond. It has a small deck attached. With a porta-potty added, it could be lived in. There is also a like-new 12x24 shed with electric, internet, and some insulation. It was purchased separately and cannot be included at our $149000 price. Buy it for $10000 more and the owners will be able to pay it off and give you clear title.
The residence is a 14x67 mobile home which was gutted and is slowly being renovated. It has a 12x50 carport, and a 8x16 enclosed porch. The owners father lives here, but its not good enough for her and her mother, so they rented an apartment for the season. Everything works, heat (wood and oil), stove, refrigerator (fairly new) and washer so you can be warm, dry, clean, and well-fed here. But its not nice. Rooming with the father are too many enthusiastic dogs, so we hope most folks can skip the visit inside. See it if you want, just don't let your expectations get too high.
The homesite by the road has the best views, but you can't quite see the pond. There is a 12x20' shed there. And, right now, an old trailer (sold, not yet removed).
This is a highly scenic spot, quality land, and it cries out for an outstanding home. Taxes are only $12-1500, before any Star or other deductions. Somebody's going to be delighted. If you are pre-approved, it could be you.
