Splendido Lodge In Stile Tudor Con Fascino Storico

Welcome to 119 Third Street, a striking Tudor-style property offering exceptional scale, architectural presence, and flexibility in a prime downtown Ithaca location. Rich in historic detail and thoughtfully configured, this rare multi-use building presents a compelling opportunity to acquire a property with substantial existing infrastructure and broad future potential. At the heart of the property is the expansive four-unit Lodge, encompassing over 11,000 square feet of space. The Lodge features a warm and welcoming lobby anchored by a wood stove, custom woodwork, leaded glass windows, and a central staircase that beautifully reflects the building’s Tudor character. Common areas include a generous gathering hall with 18-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light. The community dining space can seat a multitude of people, serviced by two fully outfitted commercial kitchens in addition to a shared residential kitchen—an infrastructure rarely found in properties of this type. Beyond the Lodge, the property is further enhanced by approximately 6,720 square feet of heated, clear-span storage space, featuring commercial loading access through an oversized door. This versatile area is well suited for storage, operations, or adaptive reuse, subject to approvals. An additional 500 square feet of previously approved commercial space—historically permitted for a small tea-packing business—adds further flexibility to the site. The property benefits from ample off-street parking, historically documented at approximately 30 parking spaces, significantly enhancing usability for residential, commercial, or mixed-use applications. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Ithaca, the Commons, and major employers, 119 Third Street offers a rare combination of scale, location, zoning context, and architectural integrity. Whether maintained as a multi-unit residential property, repositioned as an investment asset, or explored for permitted mixed-use opportunities through the City’s review process, 119 Third Street stands as a truly rare offering—defined by architectural significance, legal clarity, and exceptional adaptability.
