402 9th Street SW
Cooperstown, North Dakota
What a grand home! The owner has spent countless hours restoring this house to its current beautiful condition. The hardwood floors have been redone through out the house. As you walk through the front door the light from the crystal chandelier highlights the beautiful woodwork. The moldings throughout the home are quite impressive. The front entry has a small powder room with a sink and stool.
The staircase just inside the foyer leads to the 4 bedrooms on the 2nd floor including a large master bedroom with a fireplace and full bathroom. The other 3 rooms all have ample storage for a house built in 1904. In addition to the master bath this floor also has another full sized bathroom. Almost all of the rooms are freshly painted.
From the landing on the 2nd floor there is access to the 3rd floor which houses an antique billiards table which is included in the purchase of the house. The table has ivory inlay and is believed to have belonged to RC Cooper, founder of Cooperstown and the original owner of the property. Also included are the pool cues and score keeper in the billiards room. This upper floor is currently used as storage but could be easily renovated into a game room to complement the billiards room or make it your own private ballroom!
The main floor has an open floor plan that includes a “parlor”, a family room, a dining room, and the kitchen. Pocket doors separate the dining from the rest of the main floor. The family room has another cozy wood burning fireplace. The kitchen was “updated” and has a different style than the rest of the home. The cabinets have recently been refinished. The sink and dishwasher are located in an island. Banquette seating provides plenty of room for informal dining.
If you like grand historical houses than this one is for you! Spend a cool summer night in the sunroom in the back. It’s a perfect place to entertain and barbeque. The sunroom is accessed through the garage and also exits to the backyard. The backyard is enclosed with shrubs and trees making it more private and includes a shed to house the lawnmower and other yard and garden tools. The curved driveway leads to the 2 car attached garage.
Full of charm and character the property is located conveniently off Hwy 45 this house is only a block away from downtown Cooperstown and almost at the center of town.
