23 Ridgeview DR East Rochester, NY 14445

Welcome to 23 Ridgeview Drive—a truly exceptional and meticulously crafted residence offering a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of East Rochester's most distinguished custom homes! Originally built in 1937 by esteemed craftsman Harold Digert, this estate sits on an expansive double lot and has been thoughtfully expanded and enhanced over the decades—most notably by master architect Tom Hamilton, whose work includes a stunning east wing, a luminous conservatory, and additional garage space. The result is a timeless home that gracefully blends historical elegance with modern luxury.

Inside, the residence unfolds with a refined and functional layout anchored by a sun-drenched first-floor primary suite, offering seamless main-level living. Rich hardwood floors, custom millwork, and hand-selected finishes honor the home's architectural legacy while delivering the comfort and sophistication of contemporary design. The walk-out lower level provides additional space for recreation or guests, and both attached and detached garages offer generous room for vehicles, storage, or creative projects.

A charming bridge connects the main house to the heated “She Shed”—a whimsical, standalone retreat ideal for studio work, quiet reflection, or curling up with a good book.

Step outside into a true botanical sanctuary! Your stroll through this living masterpiece begins at the breathtaking conservatory, designed to dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, perfect for both grand entertaining and peaceful solitude. Continue to the garden where every detail is accounted for--from the meandering walking trails, hidden sitting nooks, and expertly curated gardens (complete with rare and exotic plantings) to the underground potting shed—a unique addition for the avid gardener!

Additional features include a whole-house generator, ensuring uninterrupted comfort year-round and geothermal heat and AC to keep the climate just right!

This property is truly a celebration of craftsmanship, nature, and enduring style. A rare sanctuary where every element has been curated with intention—this is not just a place to live, but a legacy to cherish.
