400 McClintock Rd, Dryden, NY 13053

This charming, updated Farm House has been beautifully maintained over the years by the same family for multiple generations. Once the homestead of the Griswold-Downey Farm, this 4 bed, 2 bath home now has an enclosed 3 season porch; recently renovated kitchen with granite countertops, a pantry and custom cabinets; and updated bathrooms that will serve many more generations. Tall insulated windows allow light to dance across the original wood floors of the large, tall rooms. While it has a traditional floor plan, each room flows threw wide doorways, giving a more open floor plan feel. Continue enjoying the endless views from the private back porch that can be accessed from the back yard, the kitchen or the first floor bedroom. It's a perfect spot to enjoy the summer breeze and take in the landscape that stretches far beyond the many beautifully painted outbuildings. One barn is now your 6 car garage and another rented by a local hay farmer. There is still room to store your many treasures, create an event space, fill The Hen House, raise some sheep or goats, or create a guest house. So much opportunity! Even the dry, walk-out basement is worth talking about with original stone slab flooring, a workshop, plenty of storage, newer boiler and water heater, and a utility sink to keep the messy cleanup jobs out of the kitchen sink. You'll be only minutes from the amenities in Dryden, Ithaca or Cortland. Yes, there is plenty of space on this 3.5 acre lot to play, work and live with neighbors not too near and not too far. Perhaps give homesteading a try or just enjoy the peaceful escape this property provides.
