1976 Slaterville Road, Ithaca, NY 14850

High quality construction defines this custom log home built in 2004: poured concrete foundation, polished cement floors in the lower level, whole-log construction, Pella windows and full insulation. Well off the road on 3 private acres, only minutes to Cornell, downtown Ithaca, and Wegmans.

Three bedrooms, two baths, with a spacious primary loft big enough to add an office area overlooking the living room, this home has a flexible layout, giving people room to breathe - one bedroom on each level, and on the ground floor level the third bedroom is its own suite with a full bath and kitchenette area, plus separate walk out entrance - an easy set up for rental, or just fantastic ease and privacy for your guests.

Warm wood envelopes you, cathedral ceilings soar, the decks outside capture warm light and the private backyard. RECENT UPDATES INCLUDE: New hot water heater, new radon mitigation system, new UV water treatment system, new septic lift pump. The chicken coop stays, as does the large gazebo where you can freely enjoy fires and the company of friends.

The three acres back up to an old railroad bed which may some day join the East Hill Rec. Trail. This is an extremely well built, unique, and lovely home; the house is snug and inexpensive to heat in the winter. 1.5 car garage with storage, low Town of Dryden taxes, Ithaca City School District.
