117 Claire Road Syracuse NY 13214 | MLS #S1700475

Step into a piece of Syracuse history. Built in 1928, this stucco colonial in coveted Meadowbrook carries the craftsmanship and character of a bygone era, the kind of home they simply don’t build anymore, and it’s ready for its next chapter.

A charming entryway welcomes you into a foyer where a handsome staircase ascends to the second floor. The sun-filled living room centers on a decorative fireplace and a large bay window with built-in seat, then opens to a versatile office/den and formal dining room before wrapping around to the eat-in kitchen. Hardwood floors, built-in bookcases, and original period details give every room warmth and story. A convenient half bath sits off the rear hallway near the exit to the brick patio, perfect for morning coffee or summer gatherings.

The main floor holds a flexible surprise: the former attached garage is now a spacious fourth bedroom, adding roughly 280 square feet of living space. Fully insulated with its own closet, modern outlets, and a mini-split, it was built for year-round comfort, ready for the harshest Syracuse winters and warmest summers. Ideal as a guest room, main-floor suite, or home office.

Upstairs are three more spacious bedrooms and a full bath, plus a walk-up attic for abundant storage (or future finished space), while the full basement adds even more room. Best of all, the charm comes without the worry: the utilities are fully modern, with an updated electric panel, HVAC, A/C, and plumbing, and the driveway includes an EV charger.

Then there’s the location. You’re just minutes from Le Moyne College, making this a rare opportunity as a character-filled home to call your own OR a smart investment with built-in rental demand from Le Moyne students and staff. Syracuse University, Upstate Medical, parks, and the shops and cafés of Westcott Street are all close by, with easy highway access for commuters.

Homes with this much soul in Meadowbrook don’t last long. Whether you’re an old-home lover or an investor seeking a standout rental, 117 Claire Rd is a genuine find. Not a drive-by, come see it in person!
