About this home

Do you appreciate quality craftmanship of the 1920s? This well-cared for home is located in the highly coveted Browncroft neighborhood, walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and everyday amenities. Welcome to 148 Merchants Road, where historic charm meets modern convenience. The large covered front porch is surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens. The exquisite craftsmanship is found throughout the home with custom glass built-ins, gum wood trim, and hardwood floors. Enjoy the gas fireplace in the winter and addition for an office, library, or family room. The formal dining room provides an open flow between the kitchen and both living and family rooms. A partially finished attic adds a bonus room for more space. The exterior of the home had been updated with low-maintenance vinyl siding which was professionally soft washed. Existing plumbing in basement for second toilet. Other major updates include: a tear-off roof (2020) on the house and garage with new gutters, transferable 50 year warranty, new furnace (2020), several updated windows, and hot water tank (2019). This isn't just a home, it's a lifestyle. Two large outdoor planters (tomato plants) included in sale.

About

Browncroft

Browncroft, located between Winton Road and Culver Road, is a residential and garden-focused Rochester neighborhood with early-20th-century homes and a signature springtime lilac canopy. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Browncroft Boulevard and Winton Road corridor, where corner shops, cafés, and everyday errands create a steady street-level hum. Brick Colonials and Tudors line curving streets, with deep setbacks and mature trees shaping a calm, walkable feel. The annual Lilac Festival at nearby Highland Park sets the seasonal rhythm. Local pillars such as The Little Theatre, The Public Market, and Artisanworks add culture and weekend rituals beyond the blocks.

R-1

Low-Density Residential District

The R-1 Low-Density Residential District is intended to maintain residential areas at relatively low densities. The R-1 District is a distinct urban area that is characterized predominantly by owner-occupied, single-family detached and attached homes but often contains a diverse mix of other preexisting higher-density residential uses. Each R-1 neighborhood is unique in character, composition and scale. The district requirements are intended to preserve and promote neighborhoods characterized by unobstructed front yards and pedestrian-scale streetscapes and to protect against undesirable uses and residential conversions.

Permitted uses

Include but are not limited to:

Religious facility
