A Little More Land. A Village Close By.
Three acres and a wooded backyard might bring to mind a home well out in the countryside. At 166 Moseley Rd Fairport NY, that sense of space comes with the Village of Fairport just about a mile away.
Built in 1957, this split-level has a cool mid-century vibe, light-filled living spaces and an impressive list of recent improvements. Its 3.07-acre lot extends deep behind the house, with open lawn, a beautiful wooded backdrop and plenty of possibilities.
And nearby? Fairport’s canal, restaurants, shops and historic village streets, with more shopping, recreation and connections to Rochester beyond.
Our Personal Insights
Moseley Road has a familiar mix of homes from different chapters of Fairport’s growth. Capes, split-levels and Colonials sit alongside a few older farmhouses, with mature trees and established yards tying the streetscape together.
Heading north from Ayrault Road, the road begins to rise toward the village. A sidewalk follows the route, and the surroundings gradually shift toward Fairport’s older homes and village streets.
What caught our attention at 166 Moseley Road is how far the property extends behind the house. From the road, you might never guess how much land is back there.
The lawn reaches toward the woods, giving you room for gardens, outdoor projects or simply a little more distance between the deck and the back property line.
For us, that is the appeal: room to spread out without heading far out.
Fairport Has a Center—and People Use It
One of Fairport’s pleasures is having a village center with plenty of reasons to spend time there.
Coffee at Junction361. Lunch at Riki’s. Dinner at Lulu Taqueria or Mulconry’s. A stop at a local shop, followed by some time along the canal. These businesses give Fairport its own personality and make the village part of everyday life.
The waterfront brings it all together. Boats tie up along the canal, the lift bridge rises for passing traffic, and shops and restaurants sit close to the water. Historic homes and village streets add character along the way.
You can make an afternoon of it or simply stop in on your way home.
Get Outside in Trail Town USA
Perinton’s Trail Town USA designation reflects something you can put to use: connections among the Erie Canal trail, the RS&E Trolley Trail and the Crescent Trail’s network of hiking paths.
Take a walk or jog along the canal. Get on your bike and explore toward Bushnell’s Basin and Pittsford. Try paddling, or trade the waterfront for a wooded hiking trail.
The canal can be part of your routine—a place for exercise, an afternoon outing or a ride with a stop for something to eat.
Center Park West adds recreation facilities and connections to the Trolley Trail, Perinton Community Center and outdoor amphitheater. Swimming, fitness programs and summer concerts offer more ways to enjoy the area throughout the year.
A stroll, a jog, a ride or a short drive, depending on where you are headed. There is plenty to explore.
Close to the Things You Need
South along Moseley Road, the Route 31 shopping corridor brings together Perinton Square, Wegmans and Perinton Hills Plaza, with groceries, dining, shops and everyday services in one area.
Eastview Mall and the surrounding Victor shopping district are a short drive away, as are destinations in Pittsford and Penfield.
For trips into Rochester, I-490 provides a straightforward connection, with downtown roughly 20 minutes away, depending on traffic and your destination.
Whether you are commuting, running errands or meeting friends, this location puts much of the east side within reach.
A Village With Things Going On
Fairport has traditions that give the year a familiar rhythm.
The seasonal Saturday farmers market brings produce, flowers, baked goods and other local offerings into the village. Canal Days adds art and music, while the Fairport Music Festival brings local and regional performers together in support of Golisano Children’s Hospital.
These are the kinds of things that help you get to know a place: a market you return to, an event you look forward to, a favorite spot to meet someone for coffee.
There is more to enjoying Fairport than visiting once.

What We Love About 166 Moseley Road
It starts with the light.
The entry level opens to a cozy living room with a new wood-burning stove. Beyond it, the dining area is surrounded by large windows, with sliding glass doors leading to the deck. The layout makes the backyard part of the experience inside.
The sunny kitchen has a large skylight, warm wood cabinetry, granite counters, a breakfast bar and a center island. All appliances are included.
A few steps upstairs are three bedrooms with hardwood floors and generous closet space, along with a stylishly updated full bathroom.
The walkout lower level offers flexible space for a family room, home office, hobbies or a combination of uses, with direct access to the outdoors.
Renovations have begun on the second bathroom. The shower, plumbing and electrical work are complete, and the purchased toilet, tile flooring, vanity with sink, additional vanity and fixtures will remain for the buyer to finish the space. The seller is offering a $5,000 credit toward completing the bathroom, adding trim in several areas and freshening some paint.
A few steps below, the exceptionally clean basement includes a washer and dryer, substantial storage and room for additional recreation space.
Since 2020, improvements have included vinyl siding, replacement windows and a sliding glass door, a deck, a heat pump with central air, additional mini splits, new doors, and front steps and railing. Fairport Electric and Greenlight add practical appeal.
Then there is the land.
The backyard extends far behind the house toward a beautiful wooded backdrop. Enjoy the view from the deck, plant a garden, find a spot for a fire pit or simply appreciate having room around you.
That is what makes 166 Moseley Road worth a closer look: a home with personality, meaningful improvements and an unusually spacious setting near one of our region’s most inviting villages.
