Listed for $1.5M: A look inside a historic Pittsford mansion
PITTSFORD, N.Y. (WROC) — A Sunset Blvd mansion deemed historic by the Village of Pittsford has been listed for $1.5 million. With six beds, six bathrooms, and nearly 4,900 square feet — News 8 is taking a look at the home's history.
According to the Howard Hanna realtor assigned to the home, 19 Sunset Blvd was commissioned by Colonel Edward T. Wentworth after he served in France during World War I as a doctor.
Colonel Wentworth was one of the cornerstones of what would become Rochester General Hospital. His photo can be seen in the hospital's lobby.
Colonel Wentworth was an orthopedic surgeon in the US Army who served during the war in the Provence area of France, where this style of home was typical.
After returning from the war, Colonel Wentworth hired an architect to design his home, which combines French and English Tudor architectural styles.
The house style, originating from Normandy, France, dates back to 1920 and was completed in 1929. In this design, the house and barn were combined into a single structure. The turret served as a storage space for grain and silage.
The house was built for big family get-togethers and entertaining, and it has fulfilled that purpose perfectly. It has hosted several weddings, recitals, and holiday celebrations, and the mansion is recognized as a historic landmark in Pittsford.
Inside 19 Sunset Blvd: a spiral staircase, leaded glass windows, and leaded glass windows. Outside, steel leaded windows, water tight Stucco, and Cypress wood beams.
