About This Home

227 Willard Way

Open House on Sat, May 9, 2026, 10am-NOON. This proud dwelling, known as the Burtt House, is located at the crest of Ithaca Falls, a short distance from the Cornell campus. It affords magnificent views of the rushing water & winter lake views of Cayuga Lake. Look for the drone video showing the view above the chasm. This is a project house for the Arts & Crafts enthusiast which was featured in the 1903 issue of Country Life in America. In recent years, it has been used as an occasional gathering place by a local religious community. The house is charming & eclectic; with neo-Tudor & chalet-style elements, leaded glass windows, hand-carved fireplace decorations, & a large veranda facing Fall Creek. The porte-cochere can be used as a carport. There are 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 2 half baths. The location, scale, and quality of this home invite restoration to its original state, though the U-1 zoning also permits its future use as cooperative housing, a duplex, or a multi-family dwelling--with required City permits. The fenced strip of land at the edge of the gorge is owned by the City of Ithaca and the rough log-style shed at the end of Willard Way is also on this property. Annotated James Howell structural available for review. Deed, survey, easements, invoices, & historical info are also attached to the listing.
