Every home tells a story, and 4882 Potter Road is no exception. Originally constructed in 1887 and beautifully reimagined in 2019, this stunning country home is just getting started! Perched atop a rolling hill in the picturesque Chautauqua County countryside, this residence offers breathtaking views of Chautauqua Lake and the surrounding treetops. The stately entrance provides a perfect frame for this one-of-a-kind country home. Upon entry, a sweeping staircase sets the tone for the grandeur and charm that unfold throughout. Passing through the foyer, you’ll find a spacious living room perfect for family gatherings—and then some! The large chef’s kitchen, with its premium appliances and soaring ceilings, is a dream for culinary enthusiasts, whether you're preparing a gourmet meal or creating the perfect summer salad. The main level also features a den, study, bedroom, two bathrooms, formal and casual dining rooms open to the deck, and a caterer’s kitchen, making it ideal for everyday living and grand entertaining. Up the main staircase, you’ll discover eight beautifully appointed bedrooms and six bathrooms on the upper level. Many of the bedrooms are thoughtfully themed and designed as suites, offering ultimate privacy for your guests and a sense of charm that modern construction often lacks. With luxury finishes throughout, this home is truly fit for the most discerning buyer. The garden level is home to a fully equipped in-law suite with two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a full bathroom, offering both comfort and privacy for guests or extended family. Outside, the tranquility of your private 10+ acres is truly unmatched. Expansive decks open to a large, open lawn, perfect for yard games, entertaining, or simply enjoying the stunning views. The in-ground pool, surrounded by mature hedging more than 6 feet tall, transports you to the Hamptons, creating a perfect oasis. Expertly designed with every detail in mind, the seller is open to selling the home fully furnished for an additional sum. This historic Chautauqua County estate has undergone many transformations over the past 138 years—now it's your turn to write the next chapter.
