Inspired by the work of noted 19th century American architect, Asher Benjamin, who popularized his own Federal architectural designs, this 4,000+sf four level, 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath, 1815 brick townhouse, showcases many original period features. These include 4 fireplaces with their original mantles, original wide-plank wood floors, floor-to-ceiling windows and solid wood doors with original hardware. At some point elaborately detailed triple crown molding was added to the front parlor, foyer, and living room. In the late 1990's the current owners transformed the former attached woodshed into a kitchen that is both modern and consistent with the style of the rest of the house. The original kitchen, located between the living room and the front parlor, was converted to a wet bar making it perfect for entertaining. Off both the living room and the master bedroom, French doors open onto generous wrap-around porches with the master bedroom porch enclosed by floor to ceiling glass window panels. The porches overlook a manicured quarter acre yard and carefully preserved stone smokehouse. The ground level of this home features a one-bedroom, full bath apartment with a living room and full kitchen and the original floor to ceiling built in cupboards. A two-car garage, accessed from a private alleyway, completes this remarkable Cooperstown Village property.
