Rustic contemporary on 7 scenic acres! Perched on a knoll and surrounded by picturesque countryside, this stunning retreat offers tranquility, modern comfort, and beautiful views—the perfect escape only 15 minutes from Cornell University. Step inside to an oversized entryway that welcomes you through French doors into the striking two-story great room. Unique windows and sliding glass doors bathe the space in natural light, framing the stacked stone fireplace. The open floor plan flows seamlessly, with radiant floor heat and hardwood floors adding warmth and character throughout the main level and built-in shelves offering endless opportunities to personalize the space. The delightful kitchen features a central island, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. The main-level primary suite is a true haven, complete with an en-suite bathroom, a corner soaking tub with views, a separate shower, and convenient main-level laundry. Upstairs, a cozy loft space—ideal for an office or reading nook—leads to another bedroom with its own full bath. The walk-out lower level offers even more possibilities, whether you choose to finish it or use it for storage, a rec room, or a gym. Sliding doors open to a newer hot tub with privacy. Enjoy the beauty of the outdoors from the expansive deck, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. With an oversized, attached two-car garage and direct access to the upcoming Rail Trail walking path, this idyllic country retreat offers the best of both worlds—peaceful rural living with the convenience of being just minutes from Ithaca. Don’t miss this rare opportunity!
