About this home
Offered to the open market for the first time in over 160 years, this circa 1862 brick colonial is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Geneva’s rich history. Built by Thomas Smith, co-founder of the W & T Smith Nursery Company, this stately residence was the first grand home on Castle Street and has remained in the Smith family for generations. Spanning 4,700+ sq. ft. and set on nearly 2 acres, this home offers 5 to 7 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and an original two-story carriage house. Perfect as a single-family residence or an exceptional Bed & Breakfast, the property combines timeless character with extensive modern updates. The home has recently undergone a comprehensive renovation, including a brand-new roof, complete re-wiring, all new plumbing, renovated bathrooms, and a brand-new kitchen designed for today’s lifestyle. Original wood flooring has been beautifully refinished, and the entire home has been freshly painted, providing a move-in-ready experience while preserving historic charm. Steeped in history, this residence reflects the legacy of the Smith family, who immigrated from England in the 1830s and built one of Geneva’s most influential businesses. The nursery they founded flourished across Castle Street, and the family’s grand homes became neighborhood landmarks. Thomas Smith’s residence, completed in 1862, was the first of these remarkable properties, later joined by others built by his brother William Smith, founder of William Smith College, and Thomas’s son. The elegant architecture, generous room sizes, and carriage house create endless possibilities for the next owner. Whether you envision a private family retreat, a boutique inn, or a blend of historic living and modern convenience, 546 Castle Street offers unmatched potential and a chance to continue a legacy over a century in the making....
