A spacious home nestled on over 8 beautiful acres in the heart of Ithaca. This property offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and versatility- with a main residence plus a separate one-bedroom in-law/rental apartment complete with its own entrance. Perfect for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or extra income potential. In the generously sized main home, there are three bedrooms upstairs, including a primary suite, an additional full bath, convenient second-floor laundry, and a bonus office room. Fresh updates throughout include a brand new roof, new carpet upstairs, and fresh paint. A cozy pellet stove in the living room adds warmth and charm while the home's many windows bathe the interiors in natural light. The breakfast nook opens onto a deck overlooking the fenced in backyard lined with grape vines. The perfect setting for summer barbecues, gatherings, and everyday relaxation next to the above ground pool. Outside, you'll find a lovingly landscaped retreat with apple, pear, and peach trees. The expansive, flat manicured lawn bordered by a quaint split-rail fence provides space for play and entertaining while the partially wooded acreage with maintained trails invites peaceful walks, morning jogs, and wildlife sightings. Enjoy distant hillside views, especially in the winter, and on summer evenings watch the Fourth of July fireworks on the opposite hill. A truly peaceful setting and lifestyle.e.
