Sampson House: historic town house on Main St, walking distance to shops

Located in the heart of the Finger Lakes, this 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath, 1923 Craftsman bungalow is less than a mile from downtown Penn Yan. The village of Penn Yan is the perfect home base for your next vacation, with restaurants, coffee shops, wine bars, breweries, live music, and hiking, biking & kayaking along the Keuka Outlet Trail.

After a day of wine tasting, hiking, swimming, kayaking and sightseeing, return to this relaxing, home away from home. The interior features original woodwork, hardwood floors, and comfortable furnishings. A cozy gas fireplace and multiple seating areas make the living room extra inviting. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare delicious meals at home. A favorite spot for morning coffee, or an evening bottle of wine, is the charming breakfast nook just off of the kitchen.

A formal dining room seats six, and includes a vintage piano, china table settings, and a cocktail tray table. Overlooking the fenced backyard and neighboring horse pasture, the three-season enclosed back porch has a high-top table for casual dining, and seating for entertaining. Enjoy al fresco dining on the patio, with a gas grill and a propane fire pit table. The covered front porch is a perfect place to read, enjoy a gentle rain, or observe village life around Main St.

Sleep well upstairs, with three comfy bedrooms, each with ceiling fans and room darkening curtains. The Master Bedroom has a Queen size bed, Bedroom 2 has a Double bed, and Bedroom 3 has a Queen.  The full bath is located on the second floor and has a tub/shower.   There is a small home office upstairs as well, a quiet place to work away from home if necessary.

This stately home was designed by one of Penn Yan’s most prominent citizens of the early 20th century, Dr. Franklin Sampson, who was a medical doctor by trade. He was also a village trustee, and a member of the New York State Assembly. Interested in the arts and architecture, he drew plans and financed the historic Sampson Theater on Elm Street.
