Located just steps from the Appalachian Trail and the New York state line, this historic 1820 Colonial and guest cottage offer a unique blend of historic craftsmanship, character, and charm. Set on 8.38 acres in northwest Sherman, the property showcases many period details - from original stone fireplaces and custom built-ins to handsome stone walls, patios, steps, and terracing. The main residence features 10 spacious rooms, including four bedrooms, two full baths, a generous living room, a formal dining room, and a west wing library with a beautiful stone floor. A sun-filled, eat-in kitchen and two flexible home offices-one on each level-offer flexibility for today's lifestyle. Polished red doors from the kitchen and library lead to south-facing stone patios, perfect for entertaining or quiet moments in the sun. Additional highlights include a detached two-story pole barn/two-car garage, and a charming guest cottage thought to have been the original barn or stable. Set at the opposite end of the semi-circular drive, the cottage offers private guest quarters, studio space, or rental income potential. Known as "The Willis Sherwood House" and featured in Sherman Sentinel Houses & Barns, this residence has evolved from a simple four-room cottage into a treasured family home, lovingly improved and expanded across generations. Ideally located just minutes from Metro-North trains, with easy access to NYC and beyond, this is a unique opportunity to own a piece of Sherman's history.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
