Set on an oversized lot in the heart of Manlius, this distinguished Greek Revival home blends early 19th-century character with thoughtful modern updates. Built circa 1815 and expanded by renowned craftsman Jack Penoyer in 2010, the home offers 3,600 SF of beautifully integrated living space. Inside, you'll find 4-5 bedrooms, 3 full and 2 half baths, and stunning original wide-plank pine floors. The 2010 addition introduced a custom cherry kitchen with a 12-ft island, quartz countertops (2020), walk-in pantry, and first-floor laundry. French doors open to a private deck with steps to a stone patio perfect for dining al fresco. A loft in the addition offers a sunlit family room/studio and full bath providing versatile living space. Three fireplaces (two gas, one wood-burning) anchor the living areas with warmth and charm. The attached 2-car garage and full walk-out basement--also part of the addition--offer exceptional storage and flexibility. The basement, with windows and full ceiling height, presents tremendous potential for finished living space. Thoughtful upgrades include many Anderson wood windows, Hardi Board cement siding, updated HVAC, plumbing, and electrical systems. Roofs were replaced in 2019 (main house) and 2024 (north side rolled roof). Additional updates: hot water heater (2019), foam insulation in basement (2021), interior and exterior light fixtures (2018), and total interior repaint (2018). The original porch's fir floor and wide-plank pine floors were both refinished (2022-2023), preserving the home's authentic charm. Outside, a terraced English-style garden unfolds with two patios, original stone walls, and more than 100 evergreens, flowering shrubs, and trees planted between 2018-2025. A natural gas grill hookup and newly seeded lawn (organically prepared--no chemicals) make the outdoor space both lush and low-maintenance. National Grid gas & electric average $281/mo. A rare offering where history, craftsmanship, and easy living converge. Listing agent is the owner.
