Open House Alert! 2742 West Seneca Tpke - Marcellus



2742 West Seneca Turnpike - Marcellus 
 OPEN SUNDAY, JUNE 7th - 12:00 to 2:00


This is a tale of two properties....First there is the land.  Eleven acres, reaching back into the trees.
Walking trails are cut into it.  You go back there, especially into the pines that were planted many moons ago, and you are in another world.  The swing and gardens are just the beginning of an adventure.


Then there is the home.  Built in 1835, it is filled with wonderful areas for living.  The above photo is of what would be considered the master - or the master's - bedroom.  That's a four-poster; the ceiling is vaulted. Look at the size of those windows!  On the eastern side are another set with a ledge.  Built-ins and more ledges are prominent in the room.  There is a memory that a small bathroom was in place and removed at some point.

Other features - a huge living and eating area with kitchen, bay window, great fireplace now converted to a wood stove, bay window looking out onto the patio and more trees.  Two more fireplaces, one in the front parlor and another in an upstairs bedroom.  Two full (modern comparatively) full baths, one up and one down.  First floor laundry room that used to be the kitchen.  What looks to be a three-car garage but has two bays and a workshop....and there is more.

This home is a space to be experienced.  No one has gotten in to see it yet and won't until the open house starts at noon on Sunday.  I am expecting agents and agents who have sent their clients.  I suspect there will be neighbors (always welcome!) and curious passers-by.  It is Olde Home Days in Marcellus this weekend, after all.

Price:  $249,900.....  ML#S333843  (home with the land....all one deed, in case I confused you.)

I plan on putting more photos in today after I walk the trails and see the progress the family has made on the inside.  Did I mention the screened- in porch?  You'll most likely find me there.  And do, please!
