Nestled along one of Ithaca’s most beloved walking trails, this South Hill ranch defies expectations. From the curb, it appears cozy and unassuming—but here, it’s truly what’s inside that matters. Step through the door and you’ll discover a remarkably spacious, light-filled home with flexible living areas designed for today’s lifestyle. It’s the perfect blend of city convenience and nature just beyond your backyard gate. The sunny living room features hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, and both South and West-facing windows that invite in that gorgeous natural light. A cozy dining area flows nicely into the updated kitchen, complete with newer commercial-grade vinyl flooring, quartz countertops, mosaic tile backsplash, gas range and refrigerator. Access to the side deck from the kitchen. The main level offers 3 comfortable bedrooms and a full bath, with 2 bedrooms overlooking the serene backyard and the South Hill Recreation trail. A centrally located staircase leads to the lower level, where the home’s true versatility shines: a 3/4 finished basement with 2 additional bedrooms (or perfect work-from-home spaces), an updated 2nd full bath, a laundry/exercise room, and a generous storage/mechanical space—all supported by extensive built-in shelving and closets. The walk-out access leads directly to the chain-link fenced yard, complete with a covered deck, large storage shed, and gate with stairs to the trail for effortless daily outings! Easy access to downtown Ithaca too. Located on a low-traffic City of Ithaca cul-de-sac plus municipal services, state-of-the-art heat pump with central AC and added spray foam insulation. Convenient on-street parking plus parking area nearby. With its surprising amount of space, welcoming feel, and unbeatable location along the South Hill Recreation Way, this hillside ranch home is a rare opportunity to enjoy both nature and city living in one special place.
