12276 State Route 38

Berkshire, NY 13736

Offered for the very first time, this lovingly maintained and thoughtfully designed custom-built home has been in the same family for over 40 years—a true testament to its enduring quality. Set on a beautifully open and partially wooded 1.4-acre lot, this move-in ready ranch offers the perfect layout for single-family living, blending comfort, practicality, and timeless design. Inside, you're welcomed by soaring cathedral ceilings and abundant natural light pouring in through all-new windows, replaced just 3 years ago. The updated kitchen features granite countertops and abundant cabinetry across from the distinct brick Russian fireplace that serves as a focal point and heat source. The sun room is seamlessly connected and followed by the rear deck. A newer mini-split unit ensures efficient heating and cooling. On the primary side of the house, the large laundry room is currently on the main level, but was once in the basement where hookups are still available and ready to use. This main-level room could easily be reconverted to a bedroom. The partially finished basement offers a large centralized gathering space in addition to multiple rooms with closets-perfect for additional bedrooms, office, or gym and an enormous separate unfinished open space—over 1K sq ft-perfect for hobbies or future expansion. Two separate garages and a shed add even more storage and flexibility. While the home is also listed as a multi-family property, having both interior and exterior entrances, optional interior unit entrances to the basement, 2 kitchens, 2 laundry rooms, separate meters, separate mechanicals, and 2 garages, it functions exceptionally well as a single-family residence-offering plenty of room. Located in the Newark Valley School District with easy access to major destinations, this property is a rare find that combines space, character, and versatility.
