Property Description
Welcome to 508 West German Street, a stunning historic brick residence in the heart of the Village of Herkimer. Offering approximately 3,105 square feet of living space, 5 bedrooms, and 3.5 bathrooms, this exceptional home beautifully combines timeless architectural elegance with thoughtful modern improvements. From its distinctive brick exterior to the remarkable craftsmanship throughout, this home is filled with character and historic charm. Beautiful original stained-glass windows, intricate woodwork, original plaster walls, elegant plaster coved moldings, and hardwood floors showcase the quality and attention to detail of a bygone era. A particularly charming feature is the original wavy glass doors at the staircase landing, opening to a porch overlooking the backyard. The enclosed side porch is equally impressive, featuring beautiful mosaic tile flooring, rich woodwork, decorative stained glass, and an elegant arched doorway. Even the original cast-iron milk delivery door remains, offering a unique reminder of the home's history. The current owners have made extensive improvements while carefully preserving the property's architectural integrity. Updates include renovated bathrooms, electrical improvements, energy-efficient mini-split systems, spray foam insulation, new gutters, and a roof approximately 10 years old. The finished basement provides additional space for entertaining and relaxation, complete with a dedicated wine room and bar, creating an inviting setting for gatherings with family and friends. The exterior is just as impressive, featuring beautifully designed landscaping and hardscaping that complement the home's classic architecture. Situated on approximately 0.40 acres, the property offers privately gated off-street parking and a detached two-car garage. Rich in local history, the property has documented connections dating back to the early 1900s, including ties to Herkimer's historic Bellinger land holdings. With its remarkable original craftsmanship, preserved architectural details, generous living space, extensive improvements, and fascinating local history, 508 West German Street presents a rare opportunity to own a distinctive piece of Herkimer's architectural heritage while enjoying the comforts of modern living.
