New Listing! 8805 Horton Street

It's been exactly a month since I was able to write this blog.  So many sales, closings, almost sales and almost closings, and now new listings.  I hope to make up for the lack of writing over the next week.





Horton is a little (936sf) home in the Village of Weedsport.  The seller bought it a few years ago and it was a mess!  Over the course of the past years she and friends have renovated it beautifully.  You can see from the photos above that the kitchen and bathroom are virtually new.  Yes, those are cherry cabinets.  The light fixtures in the full bath are quite lovely (I like the dining room lights best though).  The bottom photo is a view of the upstairs bedroom.  When it was purchased, there were two small bedrooms.  Now it's all one big one that takes up the second story along with storage.  In order to improve it, the seller tore out the old stairs and put in new ones.

Things I like:  

The laundry is located on the insulated back porch - so, first floor laundry!

There is a garage.  How handy!

The yard is fairly private and no house is between it and Route 34.

There's an island in the kitchen that provides more counter space and a place to sit and talk to "the cook."

The sunporch needs a bit of work still, but it's all windows on two sides and has a natural wood ceiling.

There are windows everywhere!

The price is $62,000......amazing!  Definitely cheaper than renting!


Take a look - drive through pretty Weedsport.  Horton is sort of on the way out of the south end of the Village, but you can certainly walk into town for ice cream, maybe an antique at the Purple Monkey, or a coffee at Dunkin' Donuts.  (ML#S357862 for even more photos and comments.)

When I was single and living on my own, I rented a carriage house in Syracuse.  Absolutely loved it...and this reminds me of it.  So, investors, maybe you could lease it out to another young person who wants to be on her own?
