Serenity with a stream! Welcome to West Danby, home of the Lindsay Parsons Biodiversity Preserve and this recently updated 2-story homestead! With over 2,300 SF of living space, there's ample space for work and play here. A formal dining room welcomes you and guests from the covered front porch, flowing into the kitchen which is the central hub of the home with newer ceramic tile flooring. There's a large living room with brick fireplace and pellet stove insert, accessing the semi-private back deck. A more casual family room area with woodstove offers 2 home office spaces nearby. Main level full bath with tile floor and also main level laundry room with half bath with expansion shower possibilities. A main level bedroom tucked away off the dining room is a nice guest space. Upstairs you have a private stairwell for the primary bedroom with adjacent walk-in closet room. 3rd and 4th bedrooms off second stairwell. Outside spaces are appealing not only with the deck but also the side yard area - ready for your new garden space. A concrete patio area near backyard stream can become your new retreat from it all. Steps away from the seasonal use road leading to great hiking and skiing opportunities. Municipal water through West Danby. Get ready for your new country spot yet so close to all things Ithaca and Finger Lake living!
