Nestled in the heart of Cooperstown's Historic Village, Cherry Hall is a distinguished Victorian residence named for the rich cherry wood that graces its interiors-a defining feature that sets the tone for its timeless beauty and craftsmanship. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath home spans over 2,200 sq ft and offers a walk-up attic with three versatile rooms, one of which once served as a home office-perfect for work, guests, or creative pursuits. Each bedroom provides ample closet space, including one with a walk-in closet. Four fireplaces accent the home's elegant living spaces, each adding period charm and architectural interest, though not currently in working order. There is a balcony off the dining room overlooking the expansive backyard, perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The home welcomes you with a gracious, inviting entry. French doors open onto the formal living room, while pocket doors lead to the study. Large windows throughout the home fill each room with natural light, including a stained-glass window on the staircase landing and additional stained-glass details on the second floor. The walk-out basement features a room that was once used as a family room, complete with a bay window, fireplace, and original built-in cabinets. It also includes a spacious area that once served as a summer kitchen, ideal for hobbies, or reimagining into a modern retreat. Outside, a front covered porch, flagstone patio, and one-car garage complete this inviting setting. Situated on a considerable-sized 0.72-acre lot for the Village, Cherry Hall offers space and privacy for play, gardening, and outdoor enjoyment. Though in need of updating, this stately residence presents an extraordinary opportunity to blend historic craftsmanship with contemporary vision. Its prime location allows effortless walks to Main Street's fine dining, boutique shops, and the Baseball Hall of Fame, with Otsego Lake and cultural landmarks like the Fenimore Museum and Glimmerglass Festival just moments away. With heritage, charm, and limitless potential, Cherry Hall is more than a home; it is a legacy, a place to create memories, and a rare chance to own a piece of Cooperstown's storied history. With its combination of space, character, and Village location, it invites the next owner to restore, reimagine, and embrace the full potential of this exceptional Victorian treasure.
