115 Fish & Game Rd, Cherry Valley, NY 13320

A rare circa 1793 Georgian-Federal gem, Willow Hill sits on a knoll above the Village of Cherry Valley, NY. Upon entering the home, one is struck by the tremendous central hall with original stenciled floors running the full depth of the house. To the left is a parlor with original hardwood floors and six original windows welcoming the sunlight. Over the Georgian fireplace, with storage cabinets at either end, is a stenciled quotation from the Roman poet Horace, Tibi Splendet Focus [For you, the hearth fire glows]. Across the hall is a second large parlor that holds both the dining room and library. There is an expansive five-bay oriel window overlooking a field (and wonderful sledding hill). An antique chandelier lights the dining room table. The library holds six great bookcases with storage below and a wood-burning fireplace. Step into the light-filled kitchen, anchored by a vast fireplace fitted with an antique wood-burning stove. Off the kitchen is a charming covered back porch with beautiful views of the valley and hills. An office and half bath complete the first floor. Ascend to the second floor by the grand front staircase or back staircase. The large second-floor landing, which could serve as another living space, has French doors that open to a balcony overlooking the majestic mature trees and well-kept grounds. In the East wing, you have 2 large bright, airy bedrooms that are filled with light from the many east and south-facing windows. These 2 bedrooms feature gas fireplaces, one of which is distinguished by an elaborate mural over the mantel. Both bedrooms feature built-in bookcases and good-sized closet space. There are 3 full bathrooms. The large master bath is located at the top of the landing. It features a gas fireplace, a claw foot tub, ample linen closet, and a walk-in shower. On the West side of the second-floor landing, there are 3 large, gracious bedrooms, each filled with light and offering their own unique charm. In addition to the 3 bedrooms on the west side, there are 2 full bathrooms, a sitting area, and a second-floor laundry. This outstanding property has 6+ acres, a 2-car garage, and a one bedroom cottage with attached garage.
