Property Description
Charming 1895 storybook cottage tucked into Rochester's desirable Homestead Heights neighborhood! This lovingly updated 1-bedroom, 1-bath home blends historic character with modern comfort throughout. A welcoming enclosed front porch leads into a bright living room showcasing original natural woodwork and a handsome staircase, with laminate flooring flowing into an eat-in kitchen finished with rich cherry cabinetry and a tiled backsplash. The main-floor primary suite offers a custom-fitted walk-in closet, while the beautifully updated full bath features a tiled tub surround and modern vanity. Upstairs, a bright, carpeted bonus room with dormer windows adds flexible space for a home office, guest retreat, or studio. The full basement holds the laundry, gas forced-air furnace, and plenty of storage. Outside, enjoy a detached 2-car garage (as-is), blacktop driveway, and a private backyard — all on a quiet neighborhood street just steps from public transportation and close to shopping, parks, and downtown Rochester. With low taxes and a great list price, this is a fantastic opportunity for a first-time buyer or investor. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Rochester history - schedule your showing today! Delayed Negotiations until 9/14/26 @ 3pm.
