Tucked in a quiet Dryden Village cul-de-sac, this sweet and solid ranch home offers a smart layout and plenty of potential to make it your own. Step into the open living and dining area, where newer laminate flooring throughout the main level adds a fresh, modern touch—and is great for pets, too. The galley-style kitchen flows easily into the dining space, with a sliding door that leads to a concrete patio and backyard ready for relaxing without a large lawn to maintain. Down the hall, you’ll find 3 bedrooms and 1 full bath, all on the main level for convenient one-floor living. The full basement offers plenty of space and is ready to be transformed—perfect for a workshop, rec room/playroom or expanded square footage. Bonus: the walk-up access to the attached garage makes projects and storage easy. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to downsize, this home offers a comfortable foundation with room to grow. Close to the Dryden Lake/Jim Schug Trail plus all shops/restaurants in Dryden Village. Convenient also to those commuting to either Cornell/Ithaca or Cortland/Syracuse via the Route 81 corridor. If you're looking for a place you can move into now and update over time, here's your chance to gain equity with every improvement!
