Property Description

Set on a spacious lot in Sodus Township, this home offers a layout that just makes sense for everyday living. The main living area flows easily into the kitchen, creating a natural gathering space for both daily routines and time with family or friends. You'll find original wood flooring throughout the main level, adding warmth and character, along with ceramic tile in the bathrooms for durability and easy upkeep. The living room is centered around a fireplace, making it a comfortable spot to unwind at the end of the day. There have been some important updates already taken care of for you, including separate HVAC systems for the upper and lower levels both replaced within the last two years and a brand new roof installed in 2026. A three-seasons room gives you a peaceful place to relax and enjoy views of the yard for much of the year, while the basement offers extra space for storage, hobbies, or the opportunity to finish it out down the road. The fully fenced yard gives you space to spread out, whether that's for a garden, pets, or simply enjoying your own backyard. Located close to town, schools, and main routes, this home offers a solid balance of privacy and convenience. Outside, you'll also find a convenient 18x20 shed for additional storage.
