Open Houses Alert! 188 East Genesee and 8805 Horton St

So let's start at 188 East Genesee Street.....Open Sunday, 11:00 to 1:00 (so you can head on out to look at the foliage, watch football games, and pick apples after you've seen the home.)  Jeannine Larose will be your host.  I've tried, but I simply can't be in two places at one time!  Jeannine knows the home and can certainly write your offer!

This is another photo of the living room and the fireplace.  For more photos, please go the ML#S1005775.
The home is listed at $249,500....Village of Skaneateles which means sewer and public water connected, plus cheap electric (ask Jeannine!)

Then:

                                                                  8805 Horton Street
                                                                 Village of Weedsport
                                                                     (Town of Brutus)
                                                                      ML#S357862
                                                          Open Sunday, 12:00 to 2:00

Now why on earth would I show you a water heater in a basement?  First of all, check out the beautiful stone work that has held up since 1880 - 136 years!  Then notice that the water heater is new, which leads me to telling you about the new plumbing and the new electrical.

The home is small, as is the price: $62,000.  I'll let that sink in for a bit......sinking....sinking....done!

Under 1,000sf, I am fairly sure that the unheated but enclosed sun porch is not included in the square footage, so in actuality it's over 1,000 sf.  The laundry is on the (heated) back porch area, there's a dining room as well as a living room, plus a garage.  All of this on a very quiet back street in the Village. Weedsport Schools, of course.

There is currently only one bedroom upstairs, but it is good-sized: 252 square feet!  Part of it is hardwood and part newly carpeted.  It made more sense to create one large bedroom instead of keeping the two smaller ones, as it was when the seller bought it.  I still think the sun porch could be insulated and heated to make another bedroom.  Check it out and tell me what you think....

And why no interior photos?  The home is being staged on Friday to give a better sense of how furniture can be placed and make it feel more like a home, rather than a renovated little house that will have low utilities and a low mortgage.

Please come and see it!  I will be your host and have a sign-in for Berkshire Hathaway's October of giving to the Cancer Society.  As always, please tell either Jeannine or me that you read about these opens on this blog.
