Charm and space around every corner 256 Seneca Parkway Downsizing soon, my eyes have recently become trained on houses. I peer out when passing for sale signs wondering “would our porch furniture fit there?” On the quiet corner of Seneca Parkway and Raines Park, you’ll see such a sign, and behind it a house worth more than a passing glance.

Pull into the large front drive and you’ll have one of those “porch furniture” moments. If this house didn’t also have a back patio great for grilling or an equally large back porch, you would be able to entertain a small mob of your friends comfortably out front. The style is simple and makes you want to sit with a glass of iced tea.

The simplicity ends at the porch however. You’ll be taken aback by the incredible yet undoubtedly tasteful detailing throughout. Original fruit wood parquet flooring flows seamlessly into the molding and effortlessly into the stairs. All original to the home and never painted, the wood lends an attractive dark contrast to the surprising amount of natural light. Also surprising is the amount of space. The dining room has enough space to seat a family of ten, and can easily be closed off with the pocket folding doors. Across, sits the living room and combination sitting room with large windows and a fireplace to angle around. The kitchen is large, made visually larger by the eleven foot ceilings throughout the home, and connects to the back porch and patio, a half bath, and a secondary set of stairs.
Original tile detailing accents the stairs on your way up to the bedrooms. A landing with bright leaded glass windows and enough space for a sitting area meets you halfway. Do you like closets? There is more closet space in this home than I have shoes to fill. Two walk-ins, two standards and even a half closet or two are hard pressed to be filled throughout the four bedrooms. Not enough space? The attic is massive and includes water hook-ups should you feel the need for an additional bedroom and bathroom on the third floor. A modernized bathroom on the second floor sits well among the antique charm of the house, with the original clawfoot tub. Sandwiching the second floor are a front-facing porch and an enclosed balcony off the master. Original 1910 lighting fixtures throughout the home, central vacuum hook-ups, a three car garage, and a brand new boiler are a few among the many wonderful attributes. At 2,605 square feet, 256 Seneca Parkway is listed with Josephine Velazquez of Nothnagle Realtors for $169,900. For more information, contact Josephine at 585-350-5785. This house begs you to return, and isn’t that what you’re looking for? A place to come home to. by Colleen Thrasher Colleen is a Landmark Society volunteer.
