    What's special

    Original chestnut woodworkOriginal characterArched doorwayFormal dining roomHardwood floorsUpdated kitchenFreshly painted interior
    Located on South Hill, this 1920 Craftsman combines original character with thoughtful updates and convenient access to downtown Ithaca, the South Hill Recreation Way, and nearby amenities. Inside, you’ll find a freshly painted interior, hardwood floors, original chestnut woodwork, and a spacious living room with a fireplace. An arched doorway leads into the formal dining room, and the updated kitchen features cherry Shaker cabinets and quartz countertops. There’s also potential space on the first floor to add a half bath, offering even more flexibility for future updates. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath, while the semi-finished third floor offers two additional flexible spaces that could be used as a home office, workout room, studio, or extra storage. Outside, the deep, fully fenced backyard has been recently landscaped, creating an inviting space to garden, entertain, or relax. The property also includes off-street parking with access from the private alley. One of the best parts of this home is the location. The South Hill Recreation Way, Six Mile Creek, downtown Ithaca, The Commons, restaurants, shops, and public transportation are nearby. Cornell University and Ithaca College are also nearby, making it easy to enjoy everything Ithaca has to offer while still having a quiet neighborhood setting to come home to.
