329 Hoose Rd, Cherry Valley, NY 13320

The first thing you may notice about this historic circa 1820 post and beam home, in addition to the charming period architecture, is how carefully the original detail has been preserved and maintained. Still present are board and batten doors with Judd latches, refinished original hemlock, maple and chestnut floors. A new cedar shake roof replaces the original. There are stone walkways and lush gardens that lead to a secluded private patio, also of laid stone. The house was recently renovated with updated bathrooms and a Japanese soaking tub surrounded by windows, giving you a private view of the back yard and woods. The gutters and flashing are copper and all the systems have been updated. A new living room Rumford fireplace was added to the house. The property at the turn of the 20th century had a working sawmill and the stonework from the milldam and race can still be seen. There is a path behind the main house that runs to Snyder Creek and you can hear the creek whispering from the yard. Snyder Creek borders the entire length of the property about a quarter of mile. The large and renovated barn was once used as a hops barn during the hay day of the hops growing era and some of the hops making details have been preserved. The hops barn has hemlock and pine floors, new siding, updates to the electrical system and new windows as well as an antique 19th century worktable. A section of the barn can be used as a garage and has a new cement floor. Across the quiet country road is another barn with a new roof and an organic vegetable garden. Included with the property are two separately deeded lots, one with a well, adjacent to the main property.
