1879 Ellis Hollow Road

About this home

Set on 1.33 acres in the coveted Ellis Hollow neighborhood, this beautifully maintained four-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath 2004 contemporary offers a rare opportunity to enjoy newer construction in one of Ithaca's most established settings. Just minutes from Cornell and close to the Ellis Hollow Community Center, the home pairs a sense of privacy with remarkable convenience in the Ithaca City School District. Across nearly 3,000 square feet, a gracious two-story foyer introduces light-filled interiors, hardwood floors, and an easy, well-proportioned layout. The open kitchen is designed for gathering, with rich wood cabinetry, expansive work surfaces, gas cooking, an island with counter seating, and a sunlit breakfast nook wrapped in windows. Glass doors bring the landscape into view, while the adjoining family room is anchored by a gas fireplace. A formal dining room and separate living room with a second fireplace create refined spaces for entertaining, and a main-level office provides a quiet, dedicated work-from-home setting. First-floor laundry and an attached two-car garage add everyday ease. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite feels like a private retreat with a beautifully organized walk-in closet, and an ensuite bath. Three additional bedrooms are generously sized, each with ample closet space, and share a full hall bath. The partially finished lower level expands the home's versatility with a workout area, recreation space, and abundant storage. Outdoors, mature trees and layered landscaping frame a fully fenced yard with room to play, garden, or unwind. The elevated deck is ideal for morning coffee and casual dining, while the separate patio and outdoor fireplace create an inviting destination for evenings under the trees. Thoughtfully composed and beautifully connected to its surroundings, this distinctive home offers a sophisticated yet relaxed approach to modern Ithaca living.
