MLS / Zillow Description
Historic Sharon Springs Country Home on 12 Private Acres
A rare opportunity to own a distinctive circa-1872 country home surrounded by approximately 12 acres of peaceful, wooded countryside in Sharon Springs. Set well within its property and buffered by mature woods for privacy, this is a home with genuine historic character, beautiful surroundings and room to breathe.
The home’s memorable multi-gabled façade, covered front porch, projecting bay window, tall period-style windows and decorative architectural details create wonderful curb appeal. Its Victorian-era character and unusual roofline give the house a presence that simply can’t be replicated in a modern build.
Inside, approximately 3,500 square feet provides generous living space with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Large rooms, abundant natural light and the proportions of a 19th-century home provide an inviting backdrop for both everyday living and entertaining.
Outdoors is where this property becomes especially special. Approximately 12 acres across two lots offer a combination of open space and mature woods, creating a private setting while still allowing you to enjoy the surrounding countryside. A pond adds to the property’s charm, and long-distance mountain views provide a changing backdrop throughout the seasons.
The acreage offers plenty of possibilities—gardens, recreation, animals, trails or simply preserving the woods and enjoying the privacy they provide.
Located in the historic Sharon Springs area of Schoharie County, the property combines the character of an antique home with the space and natural beauty people come to Upstate New York to find.
Historic architecture. 12 acres. Woods. Privacy. Pond. Mountain views. A distinctive country property ready for its next chapter.
