Every now and again among the countless

great historic homes in our area, a truly

special opportunity becomes available.

Nestled on a side street in the Village of

Webster among many stately turn of the last

century edifices, the George G. Mason House

at 39 Dunning Avenue stands out. Mr. Mason

was an entrepreneur, former postmaster, co-

founder of the village’s first bank, and general

man about town. In 1909 his former home was

moved to make way for the grand brick and

wood shingled, tile-roofed Queen Anne and

Colonial Revival style home now there.

A grand full width front porch greets you from

the street and leads to the equally grand

entry. A tiled vestibule with quarter-sawn oak

paneling leads to the show-stopping foyer.

A waterfall staircase of quarter-sawn oak

paneling, gleaming Art Nouveau stained

glass, carved column capitals, and intricate

inlaid wood floors set the tone for the first floor.

Through a broad wood colonnade, the large

living room spans the front of the house

with a substantial brick fireplace, oversized

windows, and more inlaid floors. One of the

many quarter-sawn two-panel oak doors

reveals a cozy office to the side of the foyer

with its own fireplace and floor inlay design.

The grand dining room is fit for entertaining

with its original carved glass chandelier, plate

rail and Anaglypta paneled walls, stained

glass windows and direct access to the

butler’s pantry with first floor laundry.

Passing beneath a leaded glass transom,

the pantry opens to the spacious and well-

designed kitchen. The kitchen fools the

eye with replica cabinetry and appliances

that are up to modern standards. A rear

porch off the kitchen was enlarged and

converted to a Craftsman style family

room with a 180 degree view of the

backyard. A service hall with access to the

tall, dry and expansive basement, maid’s

stair, and powder room completes the loop

back to the waterfall stair.

Proceeding past the elaborate stained

glass window that lights the landing, the

stair leads to the second floor which hosts

four large, well-lit bedrooms and two large,

original bathrooms. The bathrooms are

complete with tile floors and walls, built-in

shower and tubs, built-in linen closets, and

original toilets all in perfect working order. A

former sleeping porch has been converted

to a generous office.

The attic contains the original maid’s

quarters and additional storage areas.

The original carriage house has room for

four cars. From the floors, to the refinished

woodwork, to the windows, the current

owners have meticulously restored this

3,838 square foot village gem. Contact RE/

MAX agent Linda Cullen at 585-503-6460 or

visit the open house on January 10 from 1

to 3 p.m., and make this National Register-

listed historic home yours for $239,900.
