Open House Alert! 2 Green Street in Camillus Village

Sunday - 12:00 to 2:00 - 2 Green Street will be open.  Please come!


The Library


This is my favorite photo of the house.  The furniture is gone now, but you can see just how lovely it all could be.  To the right is a small porch looking out onto the side street.  Through the door in the rear is a full bath.  Voila!  First floor suite!

It's an older home - mid-1800s, but the owner assures me that 95% of the plaster in the house is gone.  In the front parlor is a woodstove, but the boiler is new within the past 10 years and keeps the utility bills low, even for so large a home.

The seller added a fence to make the back yard more private. At the far end is a barn that can be used as a garage.

Upstairs are at least four bedrooms (depends on how you count the rooms) and the washer and dryer!  And yes, there is another full bath.

It's a great house, and always gets "lookers."  This time I would love to see buyers as well!

Open House Alert! Sunday, October 19th

Come one, come all!  At the far end of Scenic Meadows in Camillus, high on a hill, is 125 Snowberry Lane.  It is on the market for $299,000 - MLS#S320784.  I don't have access to photos here at the office, so I guess you will either have to come to the open house tomorrow between 12:00 and 2:00 or check it out on the internet.

But you miss things online.  The neighborhood looks quite lovely this time of year.  First, there are the decorations all the houses have put in their front lawns.  Curb appeal!  Trick or treating up there (and it is up there, above 695) must be wonderful.  One of the early houses as you climb up the hill has a huge black cat and white ghost.  Actually, it's the home I sold last year and the buyers seem quite happy there.

Then there are the views.  You can see far out over to Syracuse, but it's the fall foliage you will remember now.  Think of walking the loop - a long cul de sac. I am envious!

The home itself, 125 Snowberry, has over 1.5 acres, possibly more than any other house up there.  It's not super-huge, and neither is the price (under 300K).  It still has a morning room, four bedrooms, 2.5 baths, but also a walkout basement.  That square footage is not included in the listing, but if it were it would be well over 3500 square feet.

But come see, judge for yourself, imagine what you would do with that space.  And take a walk around the neighborhood.  Can you see living there?  Raising your family there?  Even retiring there - nice and quiet!

See you Sunday!  Please sign in - there will be an incentive for an early offer.
