Ithaca Residenziale

Tucked into the hillside at the edge of Cayuga Heights, this architecturally distinctive contemporary home offers exceptional privacy just minutes from Cornell and downtown Ithaca. Surrounded by mature woods and overlooking Lake View Cemetery, the setting feels more like a secluded treehouse retreat than an in-town home.

Walls of glass, cathedral ceilings, skylights, and abundant windows fill the home with natural light while framing lush green views from nearly every room. Hardwood floors flow throughout the main living spaces, where the open living and dining area centers around a wood burning fireplace beneath dramatic vaulted ceilings.

The flexible floor plan includes five bedrooms in the main home, including a spacious first-floor primary suite with a private office and beautiful bay window with built-in window seat. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms, one with an en suite bath and another with a private balcony overlooking the trees. The finished walkout lower level offers two more bedrooms, one with an en suite bath, plus a large recreation room with direct outdoor access. The primary suite and adjoining family room with a wood stove could also function as an in-law suite.

A separate lower-level apartment with its own entrance and patio features two bedrooms and a full bath, offering excellent potential for guests, multigenerational living, or rental income.

Outside, enjoy the sounds of birds from the screened porch or open air deck. A path winds through the forest towards the neighboring cemetery. Additional highlights include an attached garage connected by a breezeway and ample storage inside and out. Lovingly built with exceptional craftsmanship and ready for its next chapter, this is an opportunity to own a home with timeless architecture, versatile living space, and one of Ithaca’s most peaceful wooded settings. Home inspection available for peace of mind.
