About this House

Absolutely beautiful. This home has been lovingly remodeled over the past 2 years, with each update carefully completed... The open front porch is decoratively trimmed, and is inviting to friends & family. Inside you'll appreciate the detail given to each space. The large living room is bright, with several windows for natural light. The formal dining room has original built-in cabinets with high windows between. Fresh, bright and ready to enjoy - the kitchen is complete with hand tiled backsplash, quartz countertops and new appliances! Use the extra space in back of the kitchen for a family room or an eat-in space... Upstairs, each bedroom is generous in size with plenty of closet space, the beautifully remodeled bathroom includes hand-tiled tub walls, and the 2nd floor laundry is a convenient touch for daily life! The attic is accessed by a full staircase and is perfect for storage! The extra large back yard is nicely landscaped with mature plants... So many updates, from furnace to windows to siding and more! A pleasure to visit, and a must see. This home had additions by past owners, and measures out to be just over 2,000SF.

    "I’ve lived in the township of Oswego for over 25 years. Our area has the peaceful beauty of country living, yet less than 5 miles from the college. Although most of the lawns are measured in acres, all the neighbor’s mow their yards on a regular basis. In the rural area, there are no sidewalks, but that does not stop people from walking or biking. Neighbors are friendly and eager to lend a helping hand. Excellent place to raise a family."

    "Great place to raise a family. Stunningly beautiful in the summer - unbelievable snowfall in the winter (140 inches last year). Hockey is BIG here. SUNY Oswego has an excellent facility and is a good community partner. Many opportunities for volunteerism. Scriba, Oswego city, Minetto, Oswego Town - are all desirable and Scriba has the lowest taxes currently. "
