313 McNaughton St, Rochester, NY 14606

Rooted in history and brimming with opportunity, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath Cape Cod is your affordable entry point into one of Rochester's most storied west-side neighborhoods. Lyell-Otis traces its roots to the late 19th century, when working-class families drawn by the Erie Canal and nearby rail lines built a tight-knit community along what became the area's beloved "West Side Main Street". Today, Lyell-Otis offers a balanced city lifestyle, blending residential calm and city conveniences, with easy access to local shops and eateries along Lyell Avenue, including neighborhood favorites along its sidewalk and tree-lined streets. The home itself delivers the updates first-time buyers crave most: Newer laminate flooring throughout, a fully renovated bathroom, a bright eat-in kitchen perfect for everyday living, and an enclosed porch that's ideal as a mudroom, reading nook, or extra hangout space. Priced well below the Rochester metro average, this home and neighborhood are an appealing choice for first-time homeowners looking to enjoy the benefits of city living without a high price tag or a savvy investor to add to their portfolio — and with downtown Rochester minutes away, you're never far from the restaurants, culture, and energy the city has to offer. Affordable, updated, and full of character — this one is ready for its next chapter. Delayed negotiations: Offers due Tuesday, June 23 @ 1pm.
