A chance to own a piece of Corning history, & the birthplace of the phrase "Brownie Points"! Built in 1872 by G.R Brown, superintendent of the Fall Brook Railway after whom the phrase was coined, this gorgeous home has had only 5 loving stewards over the past 152 years, and you could be the sixth! A stately, welcoming approach, surrounded by many of Corning's historic homes such as the Wellington House. Over 3400 sq feet of original woodwork, features and modern comforts. Multiple first floor living areas allow for gracious entertaining and functional living, and 4-5 bedrooms include a light-filled owner suite w/ ensuite bath & large closet. The stone patio and wraparound porch are ideal for outdoor relaxation, while plenty of storage and a detached garage offers a place for everything!
