Historical Victorian Gem with Rare Original Details - Minutes from Ithaca & State Parks
Step into a timeless charm with this distinctive Victorian home, built in 1845 and rich with historic character. Original, unpainted woodwork, wide plank wood floors, and classic “butterfly corner block” moldings offer an authentic, hard-to-find glimpse into 19th-century craftsmanship. Custom built-ins add to the home's unique personality and warmth.
Perfectly suited for a Bed & Breakfast, Airbnb, or a private residence, this property sits in a prime location—just 5 minutes to Buttermilk Falls and Robert H. Treman State Parks, and less than 10 minutes to downtown Ithaca.
Inside, you’ll find three generous bedrooms plus two large bonus rooms (approx. 300 sq ft) ideal for a home office, gym, or playroom (with the possibility of an additional staircase to this area). The spacious first-floor bedroom includes direct access to a full bath with tiled jacuzzi tub and nearby laundry. High ceilings throughout the first floor and oversized windows throughout provide a bright, airy feel, while oak kitchen cabinetry, a tiled floor, and a center work island enhance functionality of the eat-in kitchen.
Enjoy your morning coffee on the front sitting porch or unwind in the landscaped side yard featuring a tranquil ornamental fish pond with small waterfall. Side and rear decks offer additional outdoor relaxation spaces. The ¾-acre lot also includes a two-car garage, rear entry room, and basement storage, offering plenty of space to spread out and organize.
Additional features include:
200-amp electrical service
Dimensional shingle roof
Solid stone foundation
Public transportation via the TCAT Newfield loop right at your doorstep
