Property Description

Welcome to the historic Charles J. Paisley House, a designated gem in the East Avenue Preservation District and located in the coveted Park Avenue neighborhood. This stunning stucco duplex blends architectural elegance with smart investment potential, generating $28,800 annually from a fully rented, turn-key executive suite. The vacant unit offers additional income potential or an ideal opportunity for owner occupancy. The stately exterior features a gated marble-stepped entrance, mature gardens, two covered porches, and a spacious 2.5-car garage. Inside, original character shines through with quarter-sawn oak hardwoods, picture molding, wainscoting, and detailed woodwork including mahogany and oak built-ins surrounding three fireplaces—two wood-burning and one gas. The primary unit is rich in historic charm and modern comfort, offering a sunken office/den with French doors, a sleeping porch, a butler’s pantry with beverage station, extra-large bedrooms, and a dramatic double-wide staircase. Four full baths—three with original clawfoot tubs—and a half bath serve both units. The newly renovated executive suite features an updated kitchen with quartz countertops, new cabinetry, and modern appliances. Utilities are separate, with recent upgrades including a high-efficiency semi-commercial furnace, a two-year-old central air system, an efficient hot water setup, and separate laundry for each unit. The 10-course dry basement with glass block windows adds functionality and storage. Additional improvements include diamond-pane mullion windows—some upgraded with double-pane argon glass for energy efficiency and noise reduction. Centrally located near Cobbs Hill, the Eastman House, local shops, restaurants, and museums, this architectural treasure offers timeless style and modern amenities in one of Rochester’s most desirable neighborhoods.
