Some homes are about square footage and finishes. Others are about how you feel when you’re there.
84 Lois Lane is the latter.
Tucked into Ithaca’s Commonland community, this thoughtfully updated home feels like a little exhale from the moment you walk in. The kitchen has been beautifully refreshed with solid-surface counters, clean-lined cabinetry and crown molding, opening to a light-filled living space where big windows bring the outdoors in. Morning coffee feels better here. So does dinner with friends. Maybe it’s the trees outside. Maybe it’s the quiet. Maybe it’s just that the house makes it easy to settle in.
Step onto the back deck and the outside world seems to fall away. There are trees, birds and a whole lot of peace—without giving up the convenience of being just minutes from Cornell, Ithaca College and Downtown Ithaca.
Upstairs, the primary suite is especially hard to resist. Look out the bedroom window and you’ll understand the treehouse comparison. Greenery surrounds you, creating a private little retreat that feels worlds away from the everyday. There’s a generous walk-in closet and a private bath with heated floors and a double vanity—a small luxury that feels particularly good on a cold Ithaca morning.
The practical stuff is covered, too. A newer washer and dryer and modern heating and cooling system make daily life easier, while the HOA takes care of the exterior, roof, snow removal, trash and water. Your weekends can be spent doing something better than worrying about maintenance.
There’s also a private carport for covered parking and extra storage.
This is a home for someone who wants life to feel a little simpler. A place to come home, open the windows, step outside and breathe.
Close to everything. Surrounded by trees. Quiet when you want it to be.
