About this home
Bathed in light, this grand old home makes the best of downtown living possible. Around the corner from the Commons and the Library, the quiet street is enjoyed from the front porch. High ceilings and wide plank floors emphasize its historic elegance. Queen Anne-style bay windows and classic wood trim highlight the character of each room. Currently used as owner occupied upstairs-downstairs duplex – great for building equity or multi-generational living - doors could easily restore the single family flow, with back stairs. Both are spacious apartments with flexible layouts. The owners unit begins on the front porch, has 1500+ square feet with 2 big bedrooms, dining room and living room extended by the back porch and patio garden, an eat-in kitchen and a full bath down and another large bedroom and full bath upstairs.

The property boasts the oldest automobile garage in the area. This is the sweet spot of Ithaca: restaurants, shops, theaters, groceries are all walkable, parks and trails are nearby and bikeable, The Commons, the library and TCAT bus are a few blocks away, as are all routes out of town.
