DESCRIPTION
This large and convenient home and property is ideal for summer and winter recreation fans alike! For the winter lovers, this 2 1/2-acre property sits directly on the snowmobile trail system on the northern tip of Oneida County - in fact, the local trail groomer is stored only 100' from the property and grooms almost directly to the driveway! This trail system is maintained by the Lost Trails Snowmobile Club, and is centrally located between the Tug Hill system, the Rome/Taberg/Penn Mountain systems, and the Old Forge/Big Moose/Raquette Lake systems. You can be in any of these locations in an hour or less by sled!

For the downhill ski lovers, it's only a 20-minute drive north to the Snow Ridge Ski Resort in Turin, NY and a 20-minute drive south to the Woods Valley Ski Resort in Westernville, NY. For those who enjoy cross-country skiing, less than a mile away is the BREIA (Black River Environmental Improvement Association) Cross-Country Ski Trail system, the largest groomed cross-country trail system on the East Coast with over 50 Kilometers of groomed trails! The trails travel through the Boonville Gorge along the historic Black River Canal, and you can also trek through the Jackson Hill State Forest. The sights are breathtaking, and the deer are abundant! You might even see an occasional Bald Eagle!

For the summer and fall enthusiasts, the property is also directly across from the Boonville Fairgrounds which hosts the Oneida County Fair each July, the NYS Woodsmen's Field Days each August, and several other events each year. (This past February the fairgrounds also hosted the newly-restarted Boonville Snow Festival Snowmobile races, helping Boonville to regain the decades-old title as "The Snow Capital of the East".) The area is well-known for plentiful summertime festivals and activities, spectacular fall foliage displays, and thousands of lakes and streams within a 75-mile radius offering everything from world-class fishing to power boating.

The home itself was once a two-family home that was converted to a single-family property by the current owners, and has been fully remodeled and owner-occupied for the past 38 years. It has been very well maintained, and the large property offers many opportunities for possible development due to its strategic location within the village. The taxes are reasonable, and the house is easy and inexpensive to heat. Why is it being sold? Because the kids are all grown and it is too large for the needs of the owners.

The two-story property includes:
• Four large bedrooms on the second floor (you can easily sleep 8 - 10 people)
• Two bathrooms (one on each floor)
• A Whirlpool tub/shower unit in the second-floor bath, and a shower stall in the first floor bath
• Two sets of stairs to the second floor for convenience
• Two living rooms on the first floor allows for plenty of leg-room and seating
• Very large eat-in kitchen, complete with an electric stove and refrigerator in like-new condition
• Kitchen also includes dishwasher
• Full Basement
• Large laundry room on the first floor, complete with washer/dryer
• Lots of closet space and storage throughout the house
• Two enclosed porches on the side and front, and a large deck in the rear
• New furnace (fuel-oil) with an efficient hot-water baseboard heat system
• New windows
• BOONVILLE MUNICIPAL ELECTRICITY (CHEAP!!!!)
• Fully Carpeted except bathrooms, kitchen, and laundry room (carpet is in great shape)
• Drive-around driveway is convenient for snowmobile trailers or lots of company!

Separate Garage:
• Large two-stall garage
• Attached workshop (heated if desired-great for working on sleds!)
• Large storage addition in the rear can easily store 6 - 8 snowmobiles or ATV's
