Property Description
Two Historic Homes – One Remarkable Opportunity.
Welcome to 21 & 27 Main Street in Morris, NY — a unique and inspiring property offering two distinctive homes on 8.37 beautifully landscaped acres (recently surveyed at 8.796), complete with a ½-acre pond, fenced horse paddock, and sweeping views over the Butternut Creek Valley.
The main residence is a true architectural gem: a stately stone home with nearly three-foot-thick fieldstone walls and over 4,000 sq ft of rich character and craftsmanship. Inside, you’ll find five fireplaces, wide plank floors, original woodwork, and thoughtful updates that preserve its historic nature. A grand double-door entrance opens to a spacious foyer and a flowing main level with a formal living room, family room, large kitchen with newer appliances and pantry, elegant dining room, and an office or 1st-floor bedroom. A powder room and working elevator offer modern comfort. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features an en-suite bath, while additional areas include a bright, south-facing double bedroom, a full bathroom with convenient upstairs laundry, and another bedroom with en-suite full bath.
Outside, relax beneath the covered front porch, or the back porch, which overlooks lush lawns, perennial gardens, and a charming potting shed.
The second home provides another nearly 2000 sq ft of living space: 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, an eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, den, and bright living room. This house was a recent full time rental and is a nice historic home of its own merit.
The total property has been recently subdivided such that each home is on a distinct tax parcel to allow for future flexibility.
A single car detached garage/storage shed will come in handy, and solar panel array near the horse paddock goes a long way to offset the electric utilities.
The location offers proximity to population centers such as Norwich and Oneonta, is only 15 minutes to All Star Village in Oneonta, 30 minutes to Cooperstown Dreams Park, and just over 3 hours drive time from metro NY.
