This beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath Craftsman home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Step inside to find warm architectural details, inviting living spaces, and numerous improvements that make this home truly move-in ready.
The backyard is an absolute retreat - featuring a lovely pergola perfect for gathering with friends, quiet tea time, or outdoor dining. A fully fenced vegetable and flower garden offers space to grow your own produce and enjoy seasonal blooms.
The entire property is well designed by owners, who were professional landscapers and horticulturists, thoughtfully landscaped with deer - tolerant and native species plants, creating a vibrant, low - maintenance oasis that feels like a true flower paradise.
A well-cared-for home with classic charm and outdoor spaces designed for both relaxation and community. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the close proximity to public trails, including the Jim Shrug Trail and Dryden Lake Trail, offering scenic walking, running, and biking opportunities. Ideally situated within minutes to Dryden School, restaurants, and convenient access to Cornell and Cortland.
