24 W Second Street

Four beautiful acres along the Chautauqua Gorge, right in the Village of Westfield! This property has the feel of being out in the country, yet downtown shops, restaurants, Patterson Library, Welch Field, and Westfield Academy and Central School are all nearby. The park-like setting features open lawns, mature trees, gardens, and wooded areas, along with a raised platform overlooking the gorge and a horseshoe pit. The home has so much character, starting with the impressive great room featuring vaulted ceilings, exposed timber beams, a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning stone fireplace, and a wall of windows that fills the room with natural light. The bright kitchen offers vaulted ceilings, a large center island, abundant cabinetry and counter space, multiple pantries, and two dishwashers. Just off the living areas is a sunken indoor hot tub area surrounded by windows. The first floor includes two bedrooms, including the primary with a walk-in closet and an oversized bathroom featuring double vanities, a separate soaking tub, and tiled shower. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, an updated full bath, and a fantastic laundry room with built-in cabinetry, a folding area, and plenty of storage. The attached two-car garage has additional space that could be converted back to a third bay, while the large detached garage/workshop offers plenty of room for vehicles, equipment, projects, and storage. Additional features include a whole-house generator, greenhouse and gardening areas, a fenced area suitable for a dog run, and a playhouse with electricity. An inground pool with a pool house and half bath completes this unique property, offering plenty to appreciate both inside and out.
