26 Knickerbocker Avenue

Welcome to this beautifully maintained 1920 built home in Rochester’s historic Maplewood neighborhood, where timeless character meets thoughtful modern updates. This classic American Foursquare offers the best of both worlds—original craftsmanship paired with stylish, functional improvements throughout. The enclosed three-season front porch is a perfect spot to relax with a morning coffee or unwind in the evening while enjoying the neighborhood setting. Step inside to find rich hardwood floors, warm gumwood trim, and an inviting living room anchored by charming built-ins and a decorative fireplace. The formal dining room, also with built-ins, opens to a convenient first-floor laundry. Updated lighting and a soft, neutral palette inspired by Pottery Barn create a cohesive, move-in-ready feel. The kitchen has a convenient pass-through window to the dining room and is a chef's dream, featuring a striking copper sink, a swing-out water spigot over the stove for filling your pasta pots, and the rare convenience of three ovens, including a double wall oven—perfect for hosting or holiday cooking. Upstairs, you’ll find three comfortably sized bedrooms, an enclosed porch and a full bath, all filled with natural light. One of the home's standout features is the bathroom, which includes both a walk-in shower as well as a soaking tub complete with crystal chandelier and entertainment center - relaxation central! Outside, the fully fenced yard offers privacy and space for pets, play, or gardening, and the two-car garage provides ample storage and convenience. Furnace and hot water heater replaced in 2025. Thoughtfully updated while preserving its original charm, this home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Maplewood history with all the comforts of modern living. Delayed negotiations Tuesday, 4/28 at noon.
