About This Home
As of February 2026A Single Property with Three Distinctive Houses straight out of Architectural Digest! Your Family-and-Friends Compound! Imagine living in downtown Ithaca and your next-door neighbors are your best friends or family members. The latest trend for millennials to empty nesters is to create a family-and-friends compound with separate homes where you can live in close proximity while maintaining privacy and independence. Advantages include financial savings, support and potential rental income...what a great idea! These are Single Family Homes: 404 S. Aurora (3 Br, 3 Baths,1384 sq.ft.) + 406 S. Aurora (1 BR, 1 BR, 728 sq.ft.) + 408 S. Aurora (3 BR, 2 Baths, 1362 sq.ft.) -- just a hop skip from the Commons – just 2/10 of a mile to shops and restaurants. Plenty of off-street parking and outdoor spaces including a patio, decks, pergolas and porches. These turn-of-the-century homes have been transformed with whole house renovations in 2001 – gutted down to the studs and completely rebuilt and re-imagined with an Open Plan minimalist aesthetic. Creative, eye-catching architectural details abound. Custom space-saving built-ins using birchwood and cherry. SEE COMPLETE LIST OF UPDATES, IMPROVEMENTS & CUSTOM FEATURES. They have been highly successful short-term, long-term and corporate rentals. This is their first time on the market since their extreme makeover...they are ready for their close up! These Turnkey homes convey with Custom Furnishings -- a great investment opportunity...OR it just might be THE perfect place for your multi-generational family and friends to call home. Which one will be YOURS?
