About this home
Great rental property or owner occupied with income. Main house was recently rented to 3 quality tenants @ $725/mo, totaling $2,225 annually. Currently, just the accessory apt is rented through 7/31/26. Opportunity knocks! Enjoy comfortable living AND monthly income ($925/mo) at this wonderful property. It’s ideally located just 1.5 miles from Cornell’s Vet School, East Hill Plaza, 1 mile to Cornell’s Botanical Gardens, Fall Creek hikes, and nearby bus stops. The sweet and solid home boasts 2,000 SF of comfortable living space in a well-windowed 2-story home featuring 4 bedrooms & 3 full bathrooms. The welcoming covered porch and wide entry hall open to a very spacious living room, large eat-in kitchen, full bath and laundry. Upstairs are 4 big corner bedrooms; each with 2 windows and good closets as well as a 2nd full bath. Outside, a second driveway offers additional parking for the pleasant accessory apt and 3rd full bath . A former doorway between this and the main house could be reopened for extended family or first floor BR/2nd kitchen and bath. The entire home was thoughtfully refurbished: exposed beams in the living room, updated windows, electric, plumbing, heating, insulation & refinished siding – the works! Mature trees and a creek behind, plenty of parking on both sides, and space for a garage, fencing, patio - whatever your fancy. Great opportunity for easy living at an affordable price.
