Embrace the vibrant downtown lifestyle with endless sidewalks, quaint homes, beautiful gardens, and lively neighborhood events.

The nicely updated kitchen boasts Corian countertops, warm cabinetry, and a bright breakfast nook area. A convenient main-level laundry and half bath are tucked off the kitchen, while the formal dining room is perfect for entertaining and gatherings. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a charming sitting area—ideal for reading or setting up a small office. A full walk-up attic offers versatile space for storage or creative uses. The detached one-car garage provides additional storage, a workshop, or shelter for your vehicle during inclement weather. The home features a full basement, updated mechanicals, double-pane windows, and a new roof installed in 2021. Truly a wonderful City of Ithaca home in a central Fall Creek location.
