Property Description

Welcome to the Buckeye! This historic Chautauqua cottage occupies a prime location, with the home situated so that the lot includes a lovely private side yard. Stacked porches grace the front of the home — the perfect perch for the pastime that defines life here, where nearly every historic building on the grounds was built with a porch in mind, and neighbors, dogs, and passersby drift between them all summer long. Once on the porch, you'll find two separate entrances with access to each unit. Unit 1 follows a classic "railroad-style" layout: enter into the sitting room, which flows into the eat-in kitchen, followed by the bedroom and full bath. Unit 2 spans two stories. The first floor welcomes you with a parlor, living and dining room, a full kitchen, and a workshop. Upstairs, four bedrooms await — two with direct porch access — along with a generously sized full bath. Bonus attic space for storage or more! Turn back the clock in this CHQ cottage, made famous by one of its guests. On August 1, 1896, Chautauqua Institution welcomed its first known Black lecturer, Booker T. Washington — the prominent orator and founder/principal of the Normal and Industrial Institute in Tuskegee, Alabama (now Tuskegee University). Following his address on the Amphitheater stage, Washington famously stayed here at 20 Center Ave. Owning at 20 Center Ave. means stepping into the rhythm of Chautauqua living: mornings that might begin with a lecture, afternoons on the lake, and evenings enjoyed at the Amphitheater. During the nine-week summer season, the grounds stay largely car-free, so life unfolds on foot and by bike — a short stroll to the lake, the Athenaeum Hotel, tennis and pickleball courts, or the sailing docks. And when the season ends, the grounds don't close — Chautauqua is a four-season community. Soak up the nostalgia of this largely intact, original tent cottage, appropriately updated over the years. Come and explore the possibilities at 20 Center Ave. today! Delayed negotiations to occur Tuesday, September 8th at noon.
