75 Hickory Road, Ithaca, NY 14850

European-inspired country residence designed to grow and change with you over time! Set on 7.8 wooded acres in the vibrant Ellis Hollow community and served by Ithaca schools. Just minutes from Cornell, The Commons, and Ellis Hollow Nature Preserve - with the rare combination of private acreage and an active neighborhood community.

Maple floors, high ceilings and abundant natural light create an inviting sense of space throughout. From the grand entryway, a wall of windows draws you toward the dining room and views of the property. The large open kitchen features abundant granite countertops, cherry cabinetry, a walk-in chef's pantry and top-line appliances.

Outside, an English Garden frames the side patio, creating a beautiful spot for morning coffee as the sun rises. As evening approaches, the sun sets between mature trees surrounding the tiered patios just outside the formal living room. The wood-burning fireplace and custom built-in bookcases make the living room equally suited to a quiet evening or special indoor-outdoor gatherings.

A private main-level bedroom suite with built-in bookcases and full bath offers exceptional flexibility - use it as a guest suite, home office, or comfortable single-level living for aging parents, with the option to easily close off the space with a pocket door.

Upstairs, the primary suite includes a spacious walk-in closet and two fully remodeled bathrooms. The second upstairs bedroom offers rare flexibility: a private teen suite, spacious bedroom and play area, yoga studio, home gym, or simply a generous bedroom with room to spread out.

Mini-split heating and cooling keeps every room comfortable through all seasons. Beyond your own private acreage, this established community offers easy access to various activities. It's a rare combination: the peace and privacy of a wooded 7.8-acre retreat with the connection, activities and sense of community that make a neighborhood feel like home. Private enough to feel like a retreat. Connected enough to feel like home. Public Open House: Sunday, September 6th from 2:00pm-3:30pm.
