About This Home

As of October 2025

Tucked away on a quiet street in sought-after Lansing Trails neighborhood, this thoughtfully designed contemporary home offers bright, open living with soaring ceilings, hardwood floors, and clean architectural lines throughout. You’ll be welcomed by a gracious two-story entry that flows effortlessly into the expansive main level, where natural light fills every corner. At the heart of the home is a sun-filled great room with distinct spaces for dining, relaxing by the fire, or gathering with friends. A sliding glass door opens to a covered patio—ideal for al fresco meals or peaceful outdoor lounging. With large windows and an open layout, this home is perfect for both entertaining and everyday comfort.

The spacious kitchen is outfitted with solid wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a central island perfect for prepping meals or catching up over coffee. A cheerful bay-window breakfast nook offers a sunny spot to start the day or enjoy a cozy game night.

The main level also features a tranquil primary suite with large windows and an en-suite bath that includes a deep soaking tub, separate shower, and dual walk-in closets. Two additional bright bedrooms with full closets share a well-appointed hallway bath, offering an easy and functional layout.

Upstairs, a spacious and light-filled fourth bedroom with its own en-suite bath provides a flexible retreat—ideal for guests, a home office, or multigenerational living.

Outside, the beautifully landscaped corner lot includes a paved driveway, attached two-car garage, and plenty of flat level green space—perfect for relaxing in any season. Within walking distance to Marian Hartill Playground, restaurants, and shopping centers via beautiful trails.

Located in the Ithaca City School District and just minutes from Cornell University, Downtown Ithaca, and local shopping, this home blends privacy, comfort, and convenience. Open House Saturday (8/2) 11:00 - 1:00 and Sunday (8/3) 11:00 - 1:00
