Nestled in the vibrant Outer Comstock neighborhood, this unique two-story residence blends distinctive architectural heritage with peaceful natural surroundings. This 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers a cozy, turn-key living experience filled with character, warm historic accents, and thoughtful craftsmanship. The breathtaking atrium masterfully designed by Syracuse University Professor and Acclaimed Architect, William Scarbrough, is framed on two sides by floor-to-ceiling windows, that bathe the interior with soft natural light. Opposite the glass stands a custom full-height library and elevated catwalk that create a dramatic intellectual centerpiece, offering a quiet retreat for reading, focus, or displays. The adjacent living room warmth is elevated by authentic wood paneling sourced from a local historic red barn, bridging central New York’s rustic history with refined indoor living. Hardwood floors run throughout, uniting every level with timeless natural elegance. An upstairs study/loft overlooks both the sunlit atrium and the lush backyard. Step outside into your own private sanctuary, a fully fenced arboretum thoughtfully cultivated in the heart of Syracuse. The grounds boast distinct plant and tree species, including delicate Japanese maples, tall standing pines, blooming dogwoods, and vibrant black-eyed Susans that offer seasonal color and privacy. A stone patio serves as an inviting venue for outdoor dining or peaceful reflection, with direct access to both the atrium and attached 2 car garage. A smart double-wide driveway with single-car access provides safety and curb appeal. Designed for low-maintenance, comfort, and practicality, this home comes fully turn-key ready with all kitchen and laundry appliances included, a full unfinished basement providing ample workshop or storage capacity, and integrated heated roof coils to effortlessly manage winter snow accumulation. Located just minutes from Syracuse University lecture halls, neighborhood greenspaces, regional medical centers, Downtown Syracuse, dining, and a vibrant theater district, 1247 Comstock Avenue delivers an unparalleled mix of convenience, natural beauty, and architectural pedigree.
