135 Sparrowhawk Lake Rd, Schenevus, NY 12155

Description

5+ private acres on Sparrowhawk Lake set the stage for this handcrafted, three-level log home built for owners who want to live inside the forest, not just beside it. A bluestone path winds up stacked-stone plateaus to a wood deck built directly around mature trees, opening onto a screened porch and the treehouse-like great room beyond — two walls of oversized windows, a stone hearth ready for a wood or pellet stove, and a dramatic ceiling fan and statement lighting overhead. The open kitchen offers dark quartz counters, an edgeless sink under a cobblestone bay window, a 5-burner gas range, built-in microwave, stacked double wall oven, and a refrigerator tucked almost invisibly into its own nook. The main level also includes two log-beamed bedrooms, a full bath, and a concealed stacked W/D. Upstairs, the primary suite features a sitting room overlooking the great room, cathedral ceilings, arched windows, skylights, a dual-sink en suite bath, and a Juliet balcony to a private deck with hot tub (condition unknown, conveyed as-is). The walkout lower level adds a fireplace family room plus a private suite with its own entrance — ideal for guests, extended family, or rental income — with a full bath and a flex room currently set up as a home gym. Outside: a detached 3-bay garage with workshop, storage, and firewood shed, all under architectural shingles, plus an old logging trail leading to private woodland walking trails out back. 25 min to Oneonta, 1 hr to Albany Int’l Airport, 3.5 hrs to the GWB — easy to reach, hard to leave.
