Community-oriented neighborhood in the "Flower City"

Dutchtown is a residential and industrial neighborhood in the “Flower City” with a community focused on lifting each other up and creating a better place to call home. Dutchtown is full of personality and convenience with urban parks, community centers and local attractions. A short 2-mile drive or bike ride east lands residents in the heart of downtown Rochester, and walkable streets and sidewalks give way to an active lifestyle in this area between the Susan B. Anthony neighborhood and Brown Square.

Fixer-uppers and low prices

The median year of residential construction in Dutchtown was 1900, giving residents a large selection of older homes with early American architecture. “Houses in Dutchtown have character," says James Blaine, an area local and Real Estate Agent at Howard Hanna Real Estate Services. "There’s a mix of multifamily low-income with deferred maintenance. A lot of houses are fixer-uppers, but rent is affordable, and a bit of capital can bring them back to life.” Homes sit on modest lots with driveways and garages, while some blocks have on-street parking. Housing styles include four squares, cape cods and colonial homes. Homes cost between $60,000 – $140,000. Potential homeowners can find a 3-bedroom four square home with a full attic, hardwood floors and a detached 2-car garage for $67,000, with prices increasing to $145,000 for a 4-bedroom colonial home next to Kilburn Park.
