Contemporary, "like new" homes in Ithaca are exceptionally rare and this one is truly spectacular. Completely gutted and professionally renovated from top to bottom, it offers the freshness of new construction with the warmth and character buyers crave. Set on a private 2 acre, wooded lot with a babbling brook, the setting is peaceful, scenic, and surprisingly convenient. South facing exposure fills the home with beautiful natural light, enhanced by dramatic triangular gable windows and soaring spaces that make every room feel bright and architectural. At the heart of the home is a stunning kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring solid maple cabinetry with pull out drawers, a deep sink with smart accessories, and 3" thick quartz counters. The 10' X 6' oversized island is a true showpiece, large enough for a chef to prep and cook comfortably, with plenty of seating for gathering. Spectacular lighting above and below the cabinetry adds a beautiful glow and enhances the warmth and spaciousness of the space. The open floor plan flows seamlessly from the kitchen to the dining area and living room, where beamed ceilings, white oak floors, and an original stone fireplace with a rustic mantel create the perfect blend of modern style and timeless texture. Sliding glass doors extend the living space outdoors to a private back patio, ideal for dining, relaxing, and enjoying evenings by the firepit with the brook nearby. The main floor primary suite is a dream with a walk in closet and a show stopping bath featuring a dual vanity and an oversized walk in shower. A stylish powder room, functional mudroom, and oversized 2 car garage complete the first floor. Upstairs, a striking floating staircase leads to three additional bedrooms and a full bath, perfect for guests, office space, or flexible living. Located on a quiet street just minutes to Cornell, downtown Ithaca, and the airport, this is a rare opportunity to own a like new contemporary home with true mid century modern flair. An additional adjacent 2 acre lot is also available. Pre-inspection available. Delayed negotiations until 1/29 @9AM.
