Close your eyes. Feel the tinkle of ice in your scotch and soda? Hear the pop and crackle of a record on the Hi-Fi as Stan Getz starts to play? This 1960's model, on 14+ acres, is like a page from an architectural design book. Features like the sunken family room, bluestone fireplace & chimney, as well as enormous plate-glass windows that perfectly frame views of the outdoors complete a true-to-the-period home. Recognized for imaginative use of open spaces, early 1960s homes like this embodied an optimistic view of the future and added flavor to everyday living. Anchored by the mid-century modern stacked bluestone fireplace, the living room represents the unique imprint of this era. Exposed ceiling-beams, deep-varnished paneling, and those brilliant picture windows that make one feel as though they are one with nature while being wrapped in stylish comfort. The dynamic kitchen just off the dining area offers space to cook, and entertain, with its peninsula sink and crisp recessed lighting. Staged just above the sunken family room (three feet below the rest of the kitchen), the kitchen and family room combo make for the perfect gathering spot. A beautiful gas-fired fireplace completes the corner. Imagine yourself this summer with guests mingling about while tantalizing smells of summer grilling drift through the room. 4 full bedrooms, 2 of which boast cedar-lined closets and hardwood floors (under carpet in master), and 2 full bathrooms complete this upper floor. Cedar-lined coat closets also in the hall. While the newest bathroom offers an electric radiant-heat floor, the central bath is an explosion of period color and style, with imaginative tilework and exceptional illumination and unique heating solutions. Mid-house, there is a stairwell leading to a partial landing that opens to a well-crafted backyard, fenced with a kennel/dog run. Stairs continue to the three-room ground-level, ideal for a media room, home office or play room. A dedicated sauna room includes a shower and sink plus an extra-large 4-person hot tub. The spacious and IMMACULATE 1-car garage has plenty of workspace, and provides easy access to the home's utilities and generator connection. 14+ acres offer a mix of woods, trails and clearings that enframe gorgeous sunsets to the west. A paved driveway runs from Crane Hill Rd through a park-like entrance to the property and makes for a clean, care-free access. 2 miles to downtown Unadilla and minutes to Sidney, Oneonta and literally a hop to I-88.
