The natural and man-made undulations of the
Genesee River may often be overlooked but
they have played a key part in the placement,
development, and character of Rochester’s
many unique historic neighborhoods.
Builders took advantage of one natural curve
of land just north of Riverside Cemetery to
create a quiet pocket neighborhood of modest
but well-preserved Colonial and Tudor Revival
style homes shaded by old growth trees.
The location also provides direct access to a
hidden treasure: the Genesee Riverway Trail
and its associated parks and historic sites. In
just a few steps you can be transported away
from the hustle and bustle of the city into a
peaceful, natural riverine setting.
The quaint, cedar shake-sided house at 87
Falleson Road sits idyllically on its corner lot,
complete with a one-car garage and classic
white picket fence surrounding a spacious
backyard. A unique wood front door with a
circular window welcomes visitors into an airy,
bright, enclosed front porch. A French door
can be closed to isolate this space from the
rest of the home, providing a quiet, pensive
area, well suited as a home office or study.
Just past the stairway, the living room boasts
original features lovingly preserved through
the years. The north wall retains a brick wood-
burning fireplace flanked by immaculate
built-in bookcases and original leaded glass
windows. A single, massive pocket door can
be smoothly deployed to close this room off
from the front entrance area and create a
cozy, warm space. As an added bonus, crown
molding frames the ceiling.
A large opening leads from the living room to
the back of the house where the dining room
is located. This room has plenty of space
for entertaining family and friends around
a good-sized dining table. The style of this
space creates a formal look, accentuated by
crown molding and a chair rail. The dining
room leads into a nicely remodeled kitchen
designed to maximize space and complement
the home’s original features.
Venture upstairs into the second floor
hallway and you will find a handsome, well
maintained built-in storage cabinet ready
to store your possessions in style. All
three bedrooms retain the original wood
floors and accents that give the house its
unique personality. The master bedroom
also features two closet spaces (one
enclosed, one open). The full bathroom
has been updated with tile floors and new
fixtures, while retaining original built-ins
for added storage.
87 Falleson Road offers approximately 1,346
square feet of living space, plus a full attic and
full basement, and is listed at $92,900. Tours
can be arranged by contacting Joy Wilcox of
Nothnagle Realtors at 585-746-1404.
