Born into a working-class Irish immigrant family, Rochester native, Kate Gleason, was a business woman and member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Mentored by Susan B. Anthony, Gleason (1865-1933) "launched in 1920, Concrest, a planned concrete-housing development of around 100 modest homes for working families in East Rochester." Designed to "resemble a southern French village, Kate developed a method of poured-concrete construction that was both fireproof and affordable." This charming Dutch Colonial at 2 Upper Cres, has been beautifully crafted and thoughtfully restored. The picket fence gate opens to an eye catching landscape and concrete staircase to the front door. Inside, is a generous foyer and sun-filled den with built-in bookcases. Spacious L-shaped living / dining room with built-in corner China cabinet. Electric fireplace (AS IS) in the dining area features a reclaimed wood mantle. Unique features include cottage style windows, galley style kitchen with walnut counters and custom glazed white oak cabinets allowing the grain to show. The Scandinavian styled bathroom includes white washed pine walls, cabinets and vanity with reclaimed wood countertop. Two well designed staircases with lovely sculptural railings. One of the 3 upstairs bedrooms has been used as a study with built-in book shelves. The current owner put on a new roof (tear-off) approx 10 years ago and new hot water heater 5 years ago. The exterior was fully re-stuccoed with olive green / brown pigmented cement. Two parking spots are in the back of the house between the orange cone (west marker) and the flower pot (east marker) plus public parking area by the playground. Deep, south facing "French courtyard" front garden with fertile soil is perfect for attractive hydrangeas, willow, roses, daylilies and hostas. Crushed stone over heavy landscape fabric can be pulled back to allow for more gardens or grass. Next door, #3 Upper Cres, is in the process of a historically sensitive restoration. Delayed negotiation, all offers due Wednesday, 11/19/25 @ 2pm. Own a piece of local Rochester women's history!
