The home

About this home

Rich in history, character, and opportunity, this 1901 New Englander blends timeless Victorian details with thoughtful updates. Offering 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, and 1,460 square feet of living space, this home welcomes you with a sweeping, covered wraparound porch that sets the stage for its classic appeal. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors, high decorative ceilings, vintage architectural details, built-in cabinetry, and elegant French doors that showcase the home's original craftsmanship. The inviting living room features large windows, a cozy fireplace, and French doors leading to the dining room. The sunroom offers the perfect place to relax, and a gas stove helps extend the season. The kitchen combines charm and functionality with Silestone countertops, a center island, and a convenient coffee station just beyond the entryway. The fully fenced backyard features a low-maintenance Trex deck that leads down to a stone patio. The property enjoys beautiful afternoon sunshine, while the mature maple tree provides welcome shade, creating a peaceful setting. A detached garage offers additional storage and convenience. Connected to public water, public sewer, and natural gas, this home provides the ease of modern utilities while preserving the warmth and character that make historic homes so special. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Rochester, you'll enjoy convenient access to local shops, restaurants, parks, and commuter routes. Open Houses will be held on Sunday 7/26 from 2p - 3:30 pm.
