Open House Alert! 50 West Genesee Street

See it again...for the first time!  1:00 to 3:00 Sunday, September 29th  ML#S280791
($400,000...4 Bedrooms, 3 Full Baths - over 3,000sf includes the third story)


I hadn't seen it like this....totally vacant, devoid of furniture, people and dogs.  I was afraid after the tenant left that it would seem "old" or somehow there would be flaws that weren't noticeable when it was filled with the previous people's things.  But no - as a matter of fact what shows up more are the graceful features that make it so lovely, such a treasure.


So much is included in this photo!  You can see the stained glass on the landing, the marvelous spindles on the oak staircase.  Up on the wall to the right of the window is one of two sconces.  The floors are all hardwood, upstairs and down.  Under the staircase is a closet - excellent use of all space.  The walls were painted (no more wallpaper) and embellished by Chuck Gridley.  The doorway you are looking through leads to the dining room and to the right of that is a small parlor with a wood burning fireplace and bay window.  There are four sets of pocket doors, and they move very easily so they are actually useful.  Beyond the dining room is the kitchen (granite and cherry) and beyond that is a family room/office-type of space. It's so well-lit because of the sliding glass doors that lead out to a deck, then the yard and garage.

It's a home that gets "visited."  I've had two brokers' opens there (two separate listings) and agents return even though they've seen it before, simply because they like the feel of the place.  Past occupants/owners come to the open houses. Even though they've moved on they want to return, and the house welcomes them back.

Come on Sunday between 1:00 and 3:00 to see if the home has the same impact on you!  As usual there will be refreshments of some kind, and possibly a fall surprise and/or incentive to buy it soon.
