After many years, I've learned that the word ''view'' can be overused--but not here. In this case, I'll gladly say it again: VIEWS, VIEWS, VIEWS!

This home is all about the setting. It's the kind of place you'll look forward to coming home to after work--or from wherever the day has taken you--just to unwind and take in the beauty of nature. Foxes and deer are abundant, and the yard is thoughtfully designed for outdoor living and enjoying every bit of the scenery.

Inside, the home offers easy, open, one-level living, plus a fully finished lower level that's perfect for guests, in-laws, or flexible use. The laundry room is conveniently located on the main living level.

You'll have the peace and quiet you want while still being just a short drive to Cobleskill for restaurants, groceries, Walmart, and even an old-time movie theater.

As an added bonus, the home includes a Generac whole-house generator that runs on propane and powers the entire home automatically. In the event of an outage, the system typically activates within about 30 seconds to one minute, restoring full power shortly after. The unit has been regularly exercised and is in good working order. The owners are also leaving a $10,000 water softening system.

This property is ready for its next lucky owners--and according to the sellers, the neighbors are wonderful, look out for one another, and truly make this a great place to live.
