A delightful downtown Victorian offering a blend of historic charm, modern updates, and an unbeatable location. Three bedrooms, one bath, located on a peaceful residential block steps to Fall Creek and just blocks from the Farmers Market, Cornell, restaurants, coffee shops, and the Ithaca waterfront. With classic flow, this home is so charming with its original chestnut wall panels, butler's pantry, and hardwood floors, complemented by a solid chestnut staircase and formal entryway. Original doors and historic details throughout add to the feeling that you are stepping back in time. The wraparound porch with original decorative railings invites good times, perfect for PorchFest and being a part of the community. Recent improvements include a younger roof, a gutted and rebuilt flooring system in the kitchen storage room, and the removal of any knob and tube electrical. Snug Planet's work in the basement includes an on-demand water heater and new insulation, while the recaptured side yard was created by digging up the old garage foundation and leveling the yard to create an oasis. Well-maintained and full of character, this gem is memorable.
