Welcome to 73 Lois Lane, a beautifully maintained two-story home in the highly desirable Commonland Community, offering peaceful pond views and effortless living just minutes from Cornell, downtown Ithaca, and East Hill Plaza. A welcoming covered front porch sets the tone as you step inside to a light-filled foyer with warm wood accents. From here, the home opens seamlessly into the main living space, where natural light and refined finishes create an airy and inviting atmosphere. The open living and dining areas are thoughtfully connected, with glass doors leading to a private rear deck overlooking the pond and lawn—perfect for morning coffee, quiet evenings, or entertaining guests. The flow continues into the kitchen, featuring updated stainless steel appliances, ample cabinetry, and a breakfast bar ideal for casual dining and gathering. Upstairs, a versatile second-level living area offers flexible space for a den, office, or reading nook. The spacious primary bedroom is filled with natural light and offers a peaceful retreat, while the updated full bath is clean, bright, and well-appointed. Additional highlights include in-unit laundry, a private deck designed for year-round enjoyment, and a setting that blends nature with convenience. The Commonland Community provides exceptional value with an HOA at $370 a month covering exterior maintenance, roof, siding, landscaping, snow removal, water/sewer, trash, and access to shared green space, gardens, and the scenic pond. A rare opportunity to enjoy low-maintenance living in a serene setting—just moments from everything Ithaca has to offer. Open House Sunday the 11th 1:00 - 2:00 PM
