Welcome Home to a slice of American history! This charming 4-bedroom, 1-bathroom home has been graciously stewarded by the same family since 1971, originally built as the Whitney family homestead in 1897. Step onto the covered front porch and imagine the stories these walls could tell - they've witnessed over a century of family gatherings, celebrations, and quiet moments. Where you can also enjoy morning coffee or evening relaxation regardless of the weather.    The home features a large living room and dining room with some beautiful original stained-glass windows that paint rainbow patterns across the wood floors, creating an atmosphere that's both timeless and inviting. With four bedrooms, there's plenty of space for family, or that home office you've been dreaming about.     Practical amenities include a convenient 1-car garage and the peace of mind that comes with living on a quiet dead-end road. The lot provides endless possibilities for gardening, entertaining, or simply enjoying outdoor space.    Adventure awaits just outside your door with hiking trails, fishing spots, and walking paths nearby. When you need supplies, shopping in Herkimer is just a short drive away. You'll also find yourself perfectly positioned to explore unique local attractions, from scenic canal cruises to the fascinating Herkimer Diamond Mines.    This isn't just a house - it's a piece of living history waiting for its next chapter. The Duffy family's decades of careful stewardship have preserved the home's character while maintaining its comfort and functionality. Ready to write your own story here?
