GENERAL COCHRAN FARM; AN
HISTORIC MOHAWK VALLEY LANDMARK, located in Fort Plain, NY
is an opportunity of a lifetime to
acquire a rare piece of history of this magnitude.
The Main House; built by General
John Cochran, personal Physician to George Washington during the
Revolutionary War. As payment for his services, received this
property and built the Mansion in 1790. He was visited here by
George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Mohawk Chief Joseph
Brandt and General Lafayette. John Cochran became the first
Director of Hospitals and the First Surgeon General of the
United States.
The Main Residence built in 1790:
A 4,000+ sq ft Mansion, with 5 Bedrooms and 4 Baths, sits on a
knoll well off the road, amidst mature maple trees, lovely
plantings and expansive rolling lawns… a truly sylvan setting.
Although fully modernized, it
maintains the authenticity and graciousness of yesteryear with
period craftsmanship evident throughout. Wainscot, arched window
alcoves, fireplace mantles, wall paneling, random width pine
flooring and decorative colonial moldings have been meticulously
restored and/or replaced to mimic their original condition.
Authentic antique boards painstakingly milled and brought back
to life for library and kitchen wall paneling.
The five large chimneys, which
dominate the exterior architecture, serve an impressive total of
9 fireplaces. Each fireplace is faced with rare, handmade tiles,
such as blue delft from Holland and ivory from France and Italy.
The Horse Facilities: There are
30 large stalls in the main barn and stud barn. These are well
ventilated, oiled tongue & groove construction. The main barn
also contains a hot & cold horse wash area, and wide blacktopped
aisles, an office with ½ bath and laundry room.
177+/- Acres: Housing 5 barns,
the largest being 40’x100’, built in 1886 with hand hewn beams,
5 paddocks with 15,000 feet of wooden fencing covering 20 acres.
3 turn-out sheds, a ½ mile training track, and over 1 mile of
well maintained roadways. A guest house, manager’s house, tenant
house, an apartment, a heated shop building and 2 entrances from
the main road, both flanked by massive limestone pillars create
the feeling of a bygone era.
Average annual income: This farm
has generated $100,000 yearly from rental income, crop sales,
and horse boarding. Additional income could be had if utilized
as a bed & breakfast, full scale training facility or any number
of other venues. The potential here is limited only by your own
imagination.
Amenities: Over $500,000 has been spent to completely renovate
and restore this unique property to its original grandeur.
Although, to numerous to mention here, we welcome your inquires.
