    NEED SELLER FINANCE? GOT CASH? LET'S TALK! You'll Never Believe You're in Irondequoit...Imagine owning your own private park—right in the heart of West Irondequoit. Rarely does a property like this become available. Hidden from the road and nestled on 1.5 acres of heavily wooded privacy, this remarkable retreat offers 110 feet of frontage on Van Voorhis Avenue and 180 feet bordering the scenic trail connecting the O'Rorke Bridge to Seneca Park Zoo. Surrounded by mature woods and abundant wildlife, you'll enjoy the peaceful beauty of nature with frequent deer sightings, towering trees, and the feeling of being miles from civilization—yet you're only minutes from shopping, restaurants, schools, and expressways. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate public access to the Genesee River for kayaking, fishing, canoeing, and paddleboarding, along with Turning Point Park and miles of picturesque riverfront walking and hiking trails just steps from your backyard. The charming 4-bedroom, 1.5 bath ranch offers far more space than first meets the eye. The walk-out lower level includes the 4th bedroom, half bath, and an enormous recreation room, making it ideal for guests, extended family or entertaining. The main level features a modern kitchen, beautiful hardwood floors, cathedral ceiling with skylights in the living room, convenient first-floor laundry, and abundant natural light throughout. PLUS two wood-burning fireplaces with inserts—one on the main level and one in the walk-out lower level. Major mechanical updates include a 95% high-efficiency furnace, central air conditioning, and Low-E thermal replacement windows. Septic has been checked and is A-OK! Outside, there's plenty of room for vehicles, recreational equipment, and guests with a 2-car attached garage, blacktop and gravel parking areas, and turnarounds. Offers Reviewed Promptly.
