About this home

Welcome to a rare gem in the heart of historic Homer! Built in 1868 and thoughtfully updated throughout, this stunning home blends timeless architectural character with today's comforts. Soaring high ceilings, intricate original woodwork, and unique hardwood floors flow through every room, while a signature cupola crowns the home with distinctive curb appeal. The chef's kitchen is a showstopper — a huge center marble island, soapstone perimeter counters, a premium large-capacity refrigerator, and a spacious pantry with original cabinetry that ties the whole space back to the home's roots. Retreat to the dreamy primary suite, complete with heated marble floors, a soaking tub and a custom walk-in closet. Set on a private acre, the property offers a carriage house fully equipped for an in-law suite above the detached 2-car garage — complete with its own kitchen and bath — ideal for guests, extended family, or rental income. Step outside to a peaceful back patio overlooking incredible perennial gardens, and discover a rare piece of history in the basement: an original bomb shelter. Efficiency meets sustainability with brand new solar panels that keep electric bills impressively low. Location is unbeatable: enjoy walkable access to Homer's shops, restaurants, and library, plus the nearby Center for the Arts, all within this quaint, historic village. Quick access to Route 81 puts Syracuse, Ithaca, and Binghamton all within easy reach.
