523 S Jay Street, Rome, NY 13440

NEARLY 2 ACRES and RANCH-STYLE LIVING, all inside Rome city limits! Welcome to 523 S Jay St, a 2014-built beauty that sits just far enough from the city center to feel like a peaceful escape, yet only MINUTES from shopping, dining, and everything Rome has to offer! Step up onto the full-length front deck and into a bright, open layout. Cozy up by the stone-surround GAS FIREPLACE with built-in shelving, then head into the kitchen, the true heart of this home! Warm wood cabinetry, a HUGE island with seating, stainless appliances including a gas range with chimney hood, a farmhouse sink, a pantry, and a dining area with sliders to the back deck make it easy to cook, gather, and entertain! All 3 bedrooms, both full baths, AND the laundry are on the FIRST FLOOR. Since the finished upstairs is one large open bonus room, this is essentially ONE-FLOOR LIVING at its best! The primary suite is a true retreat, with a HUGE primary bathroom featuring a SOAKING TUB, separate shower, and double vanity. An office and a wet bar add even more everyday convenience! Peace of mind is built right in: a BONE-DRY crawl space with a sump pump, and a roof installed by Utica Roof Pros in 2024/2025 with a TRANSFERABLE WARRANTY! Outside, the fun never stops! The deep, open backyard is framed by mature trees, and the above-ground POOL, playset, trampoline, shed, and window AC units ALL STAY! Public water, sewer, and natural gas. Two tax parcels included. Rome School District. Homes like this don't come along often. SCHEDULE YOUR SHOWING TODAY! Delayed showings and negotiations begin Saturday, October 24, 2026.
