OHU50K NOTES
Surrounded by farmland, this c.1865 Italianate farm house for sale on 1.4 rural acres is a beauty! It is located outside Seneca Falls, the gateway to the Finger Lakes. Some believe the town was the inspiration for the fictional town of “Bedford Falls, NY” portrayed in the classic film “It’s a Wonderful Life”.
History
Due to its location, we can only surmise that the American Civil War-era home originally was owned by a successful farmer and had much more acreage than its present 1.4 acres. It is currently adjacent to the Empire Farm, a massive farm owned by Rodman Lott & Sons. Until a couple of weeks ago, the Lotts held Empire Farm Days next door to our featured home. Empire Farm Days was a three-day agricultural trade show held annually for 32 years. I am guessing that our featured home may have been the farm house for the large acreage that now comprises Empire Farm.

REALTOR COMMENTS
Diamond in the rough! Brick farm house for sale built in 1865 minutes from downtown Seneca Falls. Private setting on 1.4 acres. Amazing views! With four large bedrooms and two full baths this property features first floor laundry, formal dining room, bonus room/office, newer windows and public water. With a little cosmetic work this house could be restored to its natural beauty and could make a great bed and breakfast. Close to wineries and everything Finger Lakes! Tons of space. Solid house with great potential!
