About this home

Great Rental property OR an owner-occupied with income. Main house offers 4 bedrooms (all upstairs), 2 full baths (one on each floor), main level laundry, eat-in kitchen, and large living room with original beamed ceiling. Most recently rented to 3 quality tenants @ $725/mo per bedroom (totaling $2,225 annually) including utilities. Two tenants remain thru 7/31/26. The adjacent single-story efficiency apt is rented through 5/31/27 @ $925/month and has a full bath with tub. Each side has ample parking with separate entrances. The home has been thoughtfully refurbished with new windows (lots of light), electric (two-100 amp services), plumbing, heating, insulation and new siding-the works! It would be easy to reconnect the two spaces to attach single-level living for a family member or friend. Ideally located just 1.5 miles from Cornell Vet School, East Hill Plaza, just 1 mile to Cornell Botanical Gardens, Fall Creek Hikes, and several nearby bus stops. Easy maintenance and solid home.
