    What's special

    Level one-acre lotApproximately one acre
    Tucked along a quiet country road in the town of Spencer, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on approximately one acre and offers the rural setting buyers dream about without giving up convenience. You're just a short drive to Ithaca, Cornell University, and Ithaca College, with shopping and commuter routes close at hand. Inside, roughly 1,488 square feet of comfortable living space is well laid out across three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The kitchen has been updated with newer appliances, and behind the scenes the big-ticket items are already handled: public water, plus a new wall-mounted propane boiler and water heater for efficient, worry-free comfort year-round. Outside, the level one-acre lot gives you space to garden, play, or simply enjoy the peace and privacy of the Southern Tier countryside — all just minutes from town. Whether you're a first-time buyer, downsizing, or looking for a country home base near Ithaca, 541 Brown Road is worth a look.
