High up on Woodward Road is an old farm house; sitting pretty on four acres of hilltop, the house and barn well maintained over the years. The view from the front porch looks over Hencoop Hollow and goes on for miles. Mature trees surround the house, and around the back is a pond, currently frozen and covered with snow. The lot is mostly cleared and has plenty of room for an ambitious garden. In the barn is plenty of room for storing a variety of multi-wheeled toys. Or beyond that: an artists studio, exercise room, or a great space for a barn dance.
Good things continue inside the home, the large rooms all have beautiful woodwork, and the hardwood floors appear to be original. Just off the garage is a large family room. It’s big enough for several game tables, and still has room for part of it to be sectioned off for a spare bedroom. Just off the parlor is a spare bedroom; decorated in blues and pastels. There is a half bath just off the kitchen. The stairs lead up to the second floor where there is a large master bath and bedroom. At the end of the hall is a spare room, under the cathedral ceiling, that could be a play room or home office. Next to the garage is a separate room equipped with a hot tub.
Not many farm houses move into the modern world and still maintain their old country charm. The large rooms, generous land and barn mean this home maintains as much potential today as it did many years ago. It’s a bit of country charm for the modern age. Furthermore it’s only two miles from downtown Ellicottville with its skiing, golf, shops and restaurants. Stop by for an Open House this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, Jan 28 & 29, both days 1-5 p.m. For more information about this property contact Cathleen Pritchard, Licensed Associate Real Estate Broker at ERA Team VP Real Estate 716-983-4234.
The kitchen features beautiful cabinets, and an open beam ceiling.
Tall wainscoting maintains the original look of the parlor. The windows look out to the view over Hencoop Hollow.
Beautiful woodwork combines with a modern whirlpool tub and closet organizers to create a palace of a master bath.
