On a quiet cul-de-sac in Ellis Hollow, this 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath contemporary on 1.73 acres is adjacent to Finger Lakes Land Trust never-to-be-developed land. Stroll down your driveway to access walking trails, only minutes to Cornell. This home is impeccable, light-filled, thoroughly renovated, with unique contemporary styling: high ceilings, skylights and interior windows, built-in shelving, two bedrooms with multiple levels. The open layout flows beautifully from the custom kitchen with breakfast bar and stainless steel appliances, to the dining room with sliding glass doors out to the patio, to the gracious living room with walls of windows and a recessed pellet stove in the brick accent wall, then over to a calming family room that could easily be used as a downstairs office. Upstairs, the primary bedroom suite has a split-level design with a small set of stairs separating a lower dressing/living area from the sleeping area, creating a sense of privacy and luxury. Both bathrooms upstairs have been immaculately renovated, with radiant floor heating, new skylights, and custom tile work. The lower level offers a fabulous modern game room or family room, with its own new wood stove. A clean sumptuous laundry/hobby room and clothes chute from the upstairs level directly to the laundry counter! The grounds are groomed and tranquil, with a stone patio for entertaining. The list of improvements is astonishing, including (but not limited to) a new roof, a new heat pump and AC, new solar panels, new exterior and interior painting, newly renovated bathrooms, new shed - the list goes on. Everything hard has been finished, all you have to do is relax and enjoy. OPEN HOUSE: Saturday April 4th 2 - 4pm.
