Property Description

Ideally situated at 1022 Westcott Street in the heart of the Westcott area, this beautifully maintained 4-bedroom furnished home offers a rare combination of character, thoughtful updates, and prime location. Just steps from Barry Park, the shops and restaurants of Westcott Street, and Syracuse University, this home provides both convenience and accessibility to neighborhood amenities. The welcoming front porch offers an elevated, private setting shaded by mature trees. Inside, you’ll find a renovated kitchen featuring updated cabinetry, countertops, and appliances, along with fresh paint throughout. A remodeled bathroom, full walk-up attic, first-floor office, formal dining room with window seat, and enclosed heated second-floor porch add flexibility and functionality. Major 2025 improvements include new luxury vinyl flooring throughout the home, a seven-zone mini-split heat pump system with new indoor and outdoor units, an upgraded electrical panel, and new dining room and kitchen light fixtures, along with a water heater replaced in 2020. Previously operated as a guest rental, the property offers potential for short-term rental income (buyer to verify compliance with local regulations) and may also be used as a traditional single-family residence. Located within the Westcott–University Neighborhood Historic District, the home benefits from preserved architectural character, established neighborhood appeal, and walkability to parks and local amenities, while potentially offering access to state and federal historic rehabilitation tax credit programs for qualified exterior improvements (buyer to verify eligibility). Ample on-street parking and access to public transportation add further convenience.
