Just outside the historic Village of Aurora, where 1800s mansions and lakeside estates tell the stories of generations past, sits a different kind of home — one built for comfort, practicality, and the kind of everyday living that never goes out of style. This 1957 Cape Cod offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 1.4 acres of open, usable land that feels like a peaceful pocket of the countryside. Step inside and you’re greeted by the warm glow of a stone fireplace stretching across the living room wall — a hallmark of the home’s mid-century craftsmanship. The kitchen blends old and new with its solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and newer appliances, ready for everything from weeknight dinners to holiday baking marathons. The full unfinished basement is a blank canvas, the attached two-car garage keeps life convenient, and the circular drive makes coming and going a breeze. But what truly sets this home apart are the features you won’t often find in Aurora: Whole-house generator – Because losing power is so 1993. Cistern system – A prepper’s dream and a practical bonus for anyone who likes self-sufficiency. (If you’ve ever said, “I like being prepared, ” this place just winked at you.) All of this located minutes from the Village of Aurora, Wells College, lakeside dining, and some of the most peaceful countryside in the Finger Lakes. BONUS: Pre-inspected & radon tests done—this is the kind of home that works as hard as you do.
