About This Home

Welcome to 640 Highland Road, a rare opportunity to own a spacious and architecturally distinctive home in one of Ithaca’s most desirable neighborhoods. Nestled on a picturesque -acre lot in the heart of Cayuga Heights, this expansive midcentury ranch blends timeless design with thoughtful updates, including a substantial early-2000s addition that nearly doubled its original footprint. Inside, you’ll find an inviting slate-tiled foyer leading to a warm and welcoming living room featuring a brick accent wall and a wood-burning fireplace. Hardwood floors flow throughout, complementing generous living spaces that include a formal dining room, a charming breakfast area, and a well-appointed kitchen with ample cabinetry and workspace. The centerpiece of the home is the stunning Great Room—boasting soaring wood cathedral ceilings and a dramatic two-sided gas fireplace with a floor-to-ceiling stone hearth—perfect for entertaining or quiet evenings at home. The home offers 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, thoughtfully arranged between two separate wings, providing privacy and flexibility. The primary suite includes a spacious en-suite bathroom and serene backyard views. A dedicated office, sliding glass doors leading to a fabulous outdoor flagstone patio, and an attached two-car garage add versatility and thoughtful design to the home. The walkout lower level expands your living options with a large recreation room and multiple storage areas, ideal for hobbies, a gym, or future customization. Located minutes from Cornell University, scenic nature trails, and downtown Ithaca’s vibrant shops and dining, this home offers a unique blend of tranquility, space, and accessibility in a sought-after setting. Buy with confidence, ask your agent for the pre-listing home inspection.
