Welcome to 201 African Road, Vestal, NY.
First a word about the neighborhood. The house is located in one of the most sought-after areas of the Southern Tier, the Lynnhurst section of Vestal. The community has great schools, reasonable taxes and every amenity necessary for a very comfortable life. There are typically few house for sale in this area, so this house is a real find.
The house is situated on a large wooded corner lot. It is across from a park on African Road which will never be developed. A playground is just half a block away on African Road.
There are four bedrooms and three full baths. The house has public water and sewer service, gas heat and air conditioning. More details can be found here.
There is a deck coming off the front door. There are two garages with their own driveways and automatic garage doors.
This is the view from the deck.
The deck is newly painted. The roof is new as of this summer, as is the furnace and water heater. Air conditioning was also installed this summer. The basement was recently waterproofed by B-Dry systems, which guarantees that the basement will remain dry for the life of the house. The basement is not finished, but can easily be made so.
Most of the inside of the house also has a new coat of paint.
The living room is large with blond hardwood floors and a working fireplace, which was inspected and cleaned this summer.
With a wall of built-in shelves, this room can obviously also double as an office.
This bathroom has a porcelain tub, multi-colored tile and sink. It also has the convenience of a hook-up for stackable electric washer and dryer.
Off the dining room, through a lovely glass-paned door is the additional wing of the house, consisting of a den with loft, a large bedroom with siting area and a modern bath.
The den has a nook for an entertainment center and a closet that goes fully along the back of the room, creating incredible storage.
The room also has a cathedral ceiling, a sky-light and a large overhead light/fan. The nook is to the right in this picture and has a cable hookup.
The bedroom has new modern windows (easy to clean), an overhead light and fan, a skylight, a window seat for sitting (and storage), two large closets and a loving sitting area. The room also has new plush carpeting.
The room was used as an exercise studio by a previous owner and so it retains a large wall mirror. The bathroom attached to this suite is a modern one, with gray sink and toilet and a large sunken whirlpool tub and shower.
Up the spiral staircase is another suite consisting of a bedroom with loft....
and a full bath with double sink.
Outside the house, accessible from a door in the bedroom/office downstairs, is a large screened-in patio with three electric chandeliers for all-day use.
