Thriving mill town turned picturesque community
Penfield, New York, founded in 1810, is a neighborhood that is part of the Rochester suburbs. Historically, Penfield was a thriving mill town. In fact, the remnants of the Daisy Flour Mill, which is on the National Register of Historic Places, still stands today. Now, the Rising Storm Brewing Company at The Mill, one of the newer additions to the restaurant scene, occupies the historic site. Presently, Penfield is a picturesque community for those who commute to Rochester. “It’s a well-established neighborhood full of mature trees and lush landscaping,” says Jennifer Olas, a Realtor with 16 years of experience selling homes in the community. “Penfield looks like something in a magazine. And it’s a great spot to get to other towns in the region — it’s centrally located.”
More than 70 miles of trails and sidewalks
Olas says housing styles in Penfield are predominantly colonial homes and ranch houses. Prices for homes in the community range from $180,000 to $821,000 and lot sizes for most homes are 20,037 square feet. Several homes were built between 1960 and 1990.
