Distinguished Circa-1900 Residence Showcasing Timeless Elegance 4 bed 1.2 bath has so much more that it offers. Also, just 2 block from Hoopes Park and Herman Elementary School, and 10 minutes from Skaneateles. A rare offering of historic significance and refined character, this circa-1900 residence seamlessly blends period craftsmanship with thoughtfully executed modern enhancements. Rich in architectural detail, the home features four exquisite stained-glass windows—one believed to be a Tiffany piece or crafted by an apprentice—creating a stunning interplay of light and artistry throughout the interior. Two full sets of pocket doors, along with an additional single pocket door, provide both graceful flow and functional sophistication. Original woodwork, soaring ceilings, and meticulously preserved period elements reflect the home’s enduring heritage, while carefully curated updates ensure modern comfort. Formal living and dining spaces exude warmth and elegance, offering an ideal setting for both intimate gatherings and refined entertaining. Sunlight pours through the home’s windows, illuminating the exceptional craftsmanship at every turn. The residence offers generously proportioned bedrooms and updated amenities, all thoughtfully integrated to maintain the integrity of the home’s historic charm. For the discerning buyer seeking architectural beauty and authenticity, this is a truly distinctive property—an irreplaceable piece of history reimagined for contemporary living. Extensive restoration has been undertaken with a commitment to quality and preservation. From the stately rebuilt front columns to the charming seasonal porches, every element reflects careful attention to detail. Improvements include enhanced insulation, updated wiring, and a harmonious blend of expertly restored original windows complemented by select newer installations for efficiency and performance. The detached garage echoes the home’s architectural character, featuring columns that mirror the main residence, as well as a pull-down attic staircase equipped with a traditional weighted pulley system—an evocative nod to the home’s historic roots.
