About this home
Beautifully restored and thoughtfully updated, 68 Thornton Road is filled with timeless character, thoughtful details, and undeniable charm. From the moment you arrive, classic curb appeal and mature perennial gardens create a warm and welcoming first impression. Inside, gorgeous hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and a fresh palette of neutral, timeless paint colors create a beautifully cohesive feel throughout. At the heart of the home is a completely new kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, granite countertops, updated appliances, and thoughtfully selected finishes that beautifully complement the home’s original character. Three generously sized bedrooms offer comfortable and inviting retreats, while the updated bath brings a fresh, polished feel. A whimsical three-season room provides an enchanting space for morning coffee, quiet afternoons, or casual entertaining. The partially finished attic offers additional flex space, perfect for a home office, creative studio, playroom, or cozy retreat. This home's beauty is matched by an impressive list of meaningful improvements. This was not a flip but rather a wonderful example of true pride of ownership!! Just a few of the home's highlights include a complete rewire with 200-amp service. It features a full kitchen remodel down to the studs with custom cabinets/counters/appliances, new plumbing stack & plumbing to bath and kitchen, new attic insulation, new Rochester Colonial windows and doors, a new garage door, paint, landscaping, driveway, and new gutters, along with a roof completed in 2021 (tear-off). A newly fully fenced yard creates a wonderful extension of the living space, surrounded by established perennial gardens that evolve beautifully with the seasons. Ideally situated within walking distance of West Irondequoit School, this beautifully restored home offers the rare combination of original character, extensive improvements, craftsmanship, and modern comfort. Truly move-in ready and every bit as inviting as it looks. 68 Thornton Road is a home you won't want to miss!

About
Listwood
Listwood, located between Culver Road and Portland Avenue, is a residential and lakeside Irondequoit neighborhood with mid-century ranches and tree-lined streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Culver Rd–Norton St corridor, where corner plazas, longtime eateries, and everyday services set a steady, local rhythm. Housing leans toward tidy postwar homes with deep setbacks and attached garages, plus pockets of older cottages nearer the lake. Lake Ontario and Durand Eastman Park shape the geography with blufftop views, wooded trails, and beach days. Nearby cultural anchors like the Seneca Park Zoo and the historic Seabreeze Amusement Park add weekend texture without changing the calm street feel.
