About This Home

As of April 2025

Open house Saturday, February 8th from 1-3 p.m. Deadline for submission of offers on 2.14.2025 at noon. This home is much larger than it appears from the curb and will warm your heart from the moment you enter. Inside the front door is a traditional living room with a wood-burning fireplace. It adjoins a formal dining room with bow windows, and a cheerful kitchen with updated appliances and vintage cabinetry. In 2009, an addition was built at the rear, which created a main level primary suite, a gathering room (could be a guest br) and another large room that leads to the rear yard. This room was used by the current owners as a home gym. The main level primary suite offers an updated full bath, cathedral ceilings, laundry, & walk-in closet. Upstairs are 2 bright bedrooms with built-ins and a window seat. Also upstairs is a 2nd full bath with original 1930s cast-iron tub and beautiful vintage floor tiles. The basement is clean as a whistle, with a brand new FHA furnace and lots of storage. Fenced rear yard, stone patio, and colorfully painted garden shed for tools. A short distance away, at the top of this serene and quiet street, is Belle Sherman Elementary and Cornell University.
