Unrivaled Views, Prime Location – A Rare Lakefront Opportunity in Cooperstown
They say location is everything—and this exceptional property delivers. Perched above Otsego Lake at the source of the Susquehanna River, this late mid-century ranch offers panoramic water views that are simply breathtaking. Set on 0.62 private acres in the desirable Lakeland Shores community, the home boasts approx. 160 feet of pristine lake frontage and a year-round stream bordered by a charming stone and wooden plank bridge.
Tucked away from the road for maximum privacy, the 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence combines spacious, light-filled interiors with the peacefulness of a secluded retreat. Thoughtful landscaping, two-tiered bluestone patios, a covered front porch, and beautifully crafted stone walls enhance the outdoor living experience.
Inside, natural light floods through large windows and a full wall of sliding glass doors, highlighting the open-concept living and dining area. A striking fieldstone fireplace anchors the space, perfect for cozy evenings or entertaining against the backdrop of a lakefront sunset. The kitchen features expansive lake views and seamless access to the main living area, making everyday living and hosting effortless.
The primary suite is a true retreat, offering stunning lake views, double closets, and a private bath. Two additional bedrooms provide generous space and storage, ideal for guests or family.
This is a rare opportunity to own a property that blends comfort, tranquility, and breathtaking scenery—all just a short walk from historic downtown Cooperstown. Enjoy excellent restaurants, world-class museums, unique shoppes and a vibrant cultural scene, all within easy reach.
Lovingly maintained by the original owners, the home is ready for your personal touch. Whether you envision a stylish renovation or preserving its mid-century charm, this is your chance to create your dream home in one of Central New York’s most coveted locations.
