Charming farmhouse with pastoral views conveniently located between Ithaca and Cortland. The current owners have meticulously upgraded the property with a new roof, gutters, windows, siding, and main-floor air conditioning, complemented by tasteful kitchen and bathroom updates. The main level features an open floor plan with a bonus office and full bath, while upstairs you'll find three spacious bedrooms, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet, and a full bathroom. The expansive, level yard is perfect for gardening, lawn games, and already has apple trees and a grape arbor. Enjoy peaceful mornings on the front deck, overlooking a koi pond. With its efficient layout, the home feels larger than its square footage, offering additional usable space in the basement and an oversized attached 2-car garage. This turn-key home in a peaceful rural setting is just minutes from local amenities, providing the best of both worlds.

Neighborhood Residential District
The purpose of the Neighborhood Residential (NR) District is to define areas of the Town where established neighborhoods are situated in a rural landscape and constitute the primary land use. Single-family homes are the predominant form of development, and future development is unlikely. Home occupations are the primary commercial activity in this district. Agriculture is an allowed use in this district.
