I think you might have found what you are looking for, this 1880's charmer has all of the benefits of a Village Lifestyle without the extra taxes! Walking distance to the Village of Pittsford, this wonderfully maintained property has the attention to detail and craftsmanship of a 19th Century Village Cape but with all of the modern upgrades and luxuries. Built in 1880, this Historic classic is a unicorn as it offers an almost entirely single floor living experience without losing the beauty of the late 19th Century architecture. In 2017 a major overhaul was done to the property which included the addition of almost 1,000 squarefeet, including a second 10' tall basement. The renovations included a new first floor Owner's Suite complete with a changing room; a beautifully detailed full bath; a new eat-in Chef's kitchen with all new appliances, banquette and island; a new family room with beautiful views of the backyard, loads of natural light and a gas fireplace; and lastly a new 2-car garage and mudroom with access to both the front and rear yards. The basement/workshop is perfectly set up for the hobbyest in us all. There is also a fully fenced backyard that feels completely private with beautiful plantings, mature trees and a shed with a Patio or secluded firepit. Enjoy a night under the stars as you enjoy a warm fire as you survey your little slice of heaven. Delayed Negotiations until 5pm on July 21st, 2026.

I think you might have found what you are looking for, this 1880's charmer has all of the benefits of a Village Lifestyle without the extra taxes! Walking distance to the Village of Pittsford, this wonderfully maintained property has the attention to detail and craftsmanship of a 19th Century Village Cape but with all of the modern upgrades and luxuries. Built in 1880, the current owners have added a new primary suite, a Chef's kitchen and very rare and entirely new basement/workshop for the hobbyest in all of us. The fully fenced backyard feels completely private with beautiful plantings, mature trees and a shed right out of a magazine. All this and I didn't even mention the Patio or secluded firepit. Enjoy a night under the stars as you enjoy a warm fire as you survey your little slice of heaven. Delayed Negotiations until 12pm on September 28th, 2023.
