About This Home

As of November 2024

Your Cayuga Heights treehouse awaits! The perfect blend of form, function, and location, this expansive Cape features 3 levels of living, each with gorgeous western-facing views; magical every season. The sellers are moving on to their next home but you could be the lucky beneficiary of almost $200,000 in upgrades and improvements to this vintage gem. Solidly built in the 1950s, you can feel the sound construction beneath your feet. Handsome hardwoods lead you through the first and second floors where you'll discover charming retro details that will fill you with nostalgia such as crawl space closets, laundry shoots, and gorgeous, old-school paneling. The main level has an alluring “Mad Man” quality that conjures visions of Scotch on the rocks and dinner parties that spill onto the elevated deck where only the backyard forest can hear your amusements. The lowest level features abundant dry storage AND the makings of a great in-law suite or home office with a kitchenette and full bath. The house is perfectly positioned for privacy in every season and the addition of the sprawling, tree-house-like deck adds exponentially to the enjoyment element of this special home.
