Welcome to 80 Winton Rd South and the very popular Cobbs Hill neighborhood. Here's your chance to own a bit of Rochester and Erie Canal history. This charming and beautiful colonial style home was built in 1848 by Yale University descendants Justus Yale and his son Thomas Blossom Yale on the site of their nursery business along the banks of the Erie Canal. This beautiful 1727 sq. ft. home consists of two bedrooms and one full bath with a possible third bedroom or artist's studio in the walk-out basement. The light filled expansive living room and dining area have gorgeous hardwood floors, a beautiful wood burning fireplace and 9 foot ceilings. There is charming Study/Den also with hardwood floors and another beautiful fireplace. All of this leads to a large Eat-In Kitchen, a large Three Season Room and Beautifully Landscaped Backyard. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms and full bath. The primary bedroom has a walk-in closet. The 2nd floor still has it's beautiful original Wide Plank Wood Floors. Most of the windows in the home have been replaced with the exception of the architecturally significant windows in the living room. A substantial renovation of the home was undertaken in 2011 when it was purchased by its current owner including a complete Kitchen Renovation, replacement of the Blue Stone Front Steps and stonework, the driveway retaining wall and an Electric Vehicle Charging System. The home has been well maintained since that time. There is ample off street parking on the property for four cars. The basement has an exterior walk-out as well as access to the garage. Please see the house history document and a home maintenance time line in the listing attachments.

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.
