228 Westminster Ave

Welcome to 228 Westminster Avenue — a classic Colonial on a rare double homesite in the outer Syracuse University neighborhood on Syracuse's Eastside. A spacious front porch welcomes you into a freshly painted interior with gleaming hardwood floors throughout. The oversized living room features a coffered ceiling and wood burning fireplace, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. The custom kitchen offers an island, wood countertops, distinctive lighting, and great flow into a dining area or office with a large picture window overlooking the backyard. An enclosed porch, off the kitchen, opens to an expansive deck, and a modern half bath completes the first floor. Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms plus a fourth smaller bedroom or office, along with ample closet space. Some replacement windows, some updated sheetrock, and low-maintenance siding add value and convenience. Just up the street, Westminster Park offers nearly five acres of historic green space with sweeping views of Syracuse and Onondaga Lake. Nearby Barry Park features soccer fields and access to the popular 1.2-mile Meadowbrook Loop trail, while the long-established Morningside Community Garden adds to the area’s strong sense of community. Enjoy the convenience of being within walking distance to Syracuse University, ESF, the Syracuse Food Co-op, Tops Friendly Markets, local cafés, bakeries, restaurants, pharmacies, and KeyBank — making this home a perfect blend of neighborhood charm and everyday accessibility. Located in the SU 100% financing area as well as the Preservation-based tax incentive programs are available in New York State for the rehabilitation of historic income-producing properties, and owner-occupied residences.
