174 Alameda Street, Rochester, NY 14613

Welcome to this beautifully preserved 1920s Maplewood gem, originally built as the builder’s own residence and lovingly maintained by only two owners since. Distinguished by its rare chestnut and oak woodwork — much of it painstakingly restored — this home combines timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful modern updates. A double glass-door entry opens to a gracious foyer with original fixtures and crystal doorknobs throughout. The spacious living room features a wood-burning fireplace framed in brick with a decorative mantel and built-in leaded-glass bookcase. The formal dining room is a true centerpiece, showcasing period beams, plate rail, chandelier, and jalousie windows. Off the dining area, a new half bath and walk-in butler’s pantry lead to a remodeled kitchen blending vintage charm with convenience: refaced metal cabinetry, soft-close drawers, butcher-block accents, travertine-look tile, and stainless appliances. Go upstairs, passing the beautiful stained-glass window on the landing. Hardwood floors continue through three generous bedrooms, including a full-width primary with dual walk-in closets. The updated bath features new plumbing, travertine-patterned tile, a large vanity, and a beautifully preserved original medicine cabinet. The lower level includes a spacious basement with updated plumbing, laundry area, workshop, and abundant storage — a rare find in the city. A full walk-up attic with a whole-house fan provides excellent storage or future expansion potential. Additional features include central air, new plumbing, detached garage, double parking pad, motion-activated lighting, wired security system, and locking mailbox. Located within the Maplewood Historic District as a historical landmark designation, this residence blends early-20th-century character with modern comfort — a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Rochester history!
