The circa 1845 William Johnson house is a historic country estate on 226 dynamic and picturesque acres set in the heart of the most magical, bucolic countryside in all of New York State with far reaching views in all directions. On the property are acres of fields, forest, undulating hills, several creeks, a large spring fed pond and a fresh spring for drinking water. The property borders an additional 300 acres of New York State protected land.
The main house is a four bedroom, four bath Greek revival restored to perfection in 2001 by master craftsmen of the area. The chef’s kitchen, published in two international magazines, is the heart of the home with custom cabinets, a double range, vaulted ceiling and exposed beams. Floor to ceiling windows and doors line the south wall flooding the space with natural light. You can cozy up near the fireplace in the living room or enjoy the peace and quiet in the four season sunroom on a crisp winter morning, and entertain family and friends in the summer, dining alfresco on the expansive deck listening to the serene Genegantslet Creek running through the property. Upstairs are four spacious bedrooms including a master bedroom with an ensuite bath and soaking tub.
A two bedroom fully equipped guest cottage and a truly awesome timber framed barn complete the picture. An idyllic country getaway, a sportsman’s paradise, or an equestrian’s dream home.
Less than five minutes from quaint Smithville Center with basic conveniences, close to Norwich and Binghampton, and 3.5 hours from New York City.
