73 Maple St, Oneonta, NY 13820

Introducing 73 Maple Street, one of Oneonta's true architectural gems, offered for the first time in a generation! This lovingly cared for residence is an unspoiled example of Victorian-era Shingle Style architecture, most notably featuring a myriad of visually interesting roof shapes that enhance the home's exterior lines. Reminiscent of a castle and stunning from all angles, with original Victorian windows of whimsical shapes and ornamental designs. A nautical-inspired porthole window, triangle accent windows, domed windows, an unparalleled floor-to-ceiling window, and a tower window that is straight out of a castle, are all strategically placed to maximize sunlight. Feel a world away from city life with a secluded back patio perfect for al fresco dining amidst lush landscaping, Tucked behind the home is a hidden garden with enchanting touches: a pond with waterfall feature and fish, artful gardens, and an enclosed gazebo that is right out of a fairy tale. The elegant front entry could be out of a storybook with the curved stairway and decorative windows. Other authentic design elements are artfully on display, such as decorative door knobs and period wallpaper, hardwood floors, solid wood doors, and pocket doors. The floor plan features a functional design with large rooms (9 ft ceilings!) that flow into one other. The kitchen is updated with thoughtful designs, such as SS appliances and an island with additional sink and water filtration system. Adjacent to the kitchen is a formal dining room with a swinging door for easy access between the two rooms. A gas fireplace in the formal living room provides comfort on colder days. Adjacent to the living room is the library, with built-in shelves, a window seat, and a half bathroom. The second floor features four generously-sized bedrooms and a uniquely designed full bathroom. Imagine waking up in the front bedroom, starting your day by taking in nature through the iconic floor-to-ceiling windows. All of the bedrooms are sundrenched with unique window styles in each room, and 3 of the 4 bedrooms have wood floors under the carpets (condition unknown). The full bathroom has a timeless clawfoot tub, stall shower, and a pedestal sink. An unexpected feature is a separate dressing room with floor-to-ceiling built-ins and a second pedestal sink. For all its grandeur, functionality was not forsaken in this home. A newer roof with 50 year architectural shingles has a transferable warranty. The basement has laundry, defined storage rooms, and freshly painted walls. A two bay detached carriage barn could be used for vehicles, or finished and utilized as an creative studio.
