248 Southside Dr, Oneonta, NY 13820

This historic foursquare home, sitting on over 10.6 acres overlooking Oneonta, features grand tall ceilings and large farmhouse windows that create an inviting and bright living space. Recent thoughtful renovations, including; an expansive 24x34 ft deck with 12x12 covered side/front porch, a complete kitchen re-imagination, updated downstairs half bath/laundry, and a country-modern color palette, have blended seamlessly with the home's original character. This is a great opportunity to add some finishing touches and enjoy the comforts of home along with some breathtaking land just moments from the conveniences of town.From the porch entry, the kitchen space features a coat corner with storage benches, a central island with sink, all new stainless appliances, and vinyl plank woodgrain flooring. There is also a back kitchen entry to the paved L-shaped driveway. The dining room area, with original wood flooring, opens into the living room to create an expansive family social area, with plenty of room to enjoy the wood burning fireplace insert, enjoy a meal, or focus on work/schoolwork together. Currently utilized as a 4th bedroom, the room adjacent to the living room could also be an office space or hobby room. The updated downstairs bathroom has a stacked washer/dryer, charming storage space, access to the basement, and has space to potentially install a shower stall in the future. Upstairs there are three large bedrooms with wide plank flooring, a full bathroom, and a balcony overlooking the private back yard. The full basement is dry and square, and houses the utilities with some room for storage.The new front porch and deck area offers plenty of room to grill food or just enjoy the outdoors. Around back there is a patio area with a cozy firepit leading to a covered area under the deck with entrances to either the laundry or kitchen. The yard ascends gradually to the 2 car detached garage, a shed (now a chicken coop) and garden area, a level concrete pad for another building or a play court, and a generous open section of lawn. Beyond that, follow the trail as the lot widens slightly and gradually climbs southward, offering some potentially stunning views of greater Oneonta. This upper section could even host an extended trail network for recreation or even a camping space or quiet remote cabin.
