This well-maintained multi-unit property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy true walkable city living while generating income. Just steps from the Ithaca Commons, Cornell University, restaurants, shops, and cultural attractions, the location is truly unbeatable. The owner’s unit is bright, spacious, and inviting, with a layout that lives like a private residence. The living room is cozy, featuring a central fireplace with mantel, high ceilings, and a comfortable flow for everyday living or entertaining. The generously sized kitchen offers ample cabinetry and counter space, making it both functional and welcoming. Two well-proportioned bedrooms provide good closet space, and the full bath is clean and updated. Throughout the unit, large windows, neutral finishes, and thoughtful room sizes create an easy, move-in-ready feel. In addition to the owner’s unit, the property includes three additional apartments that are currently rented, providing consistent income and strong tenant demand due to the prime downtown location.
