With 7 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, the home is thoughtfully designed for both everyday comfort and long-term flexibility, featuring 9-foot ceilings throughout and a natural gas fireplace that anchors the main living area.

A heated, oversized 3-car garage (836 sq ft) further enhances functionality with ample room for vehicles, storage, and workspace. Set apart by its outdoor setting, the property features a private, aerated pond stocked with fish, providing a serene backdrop seldom found within city limits. Combining modern construction, generous living space, and a unique natural setting, this home represents a rare opportunity in today’s Rochester market.
