4 bed house 1 mile to Cornell, sunroom, central A/C, 1-car garage, Aug '24

Description

I am the property caretaker (Cornell alumnus and staff) posting on behalf of the owner (Cornell alumnus, DVM '73). I live next door on the same property but in a separate house and handle maintenance and lawn care for both properties. This listing is for a single-family house located in the City of Ithaca. This place is a real gem. It's in a quiet location and down a long driveway away from the main road, offering privacy from foot and car traffic. It's within walking distance to Cornell University (0.7mi to the Law school & 1.7mi to the Vet school), Belle Sherman Elementary (0.5mi), Mulholland Wildflower Preserve (0.3mi), downtown (0.7mi), and East Hill Plaza (1.9mi). There are plenty of walking & hiking trails, parks, playgrounds, restaurants, bars, and shops nearby. The house offers: - 1620 sq ft of unfurnished living space (3 beds/1 bath on 1st floor and a primary suite & bath on 2nd floor) plus an additional 1000 sq ft basement (with a bonus half-bath) for laundry/storage - Each bedroom has good closet space, plus a linen closet in the hallway - 4-season sunroom (potential for it to be an office or studio space) and lots of light throughout (excellent for plants!) - Private upstairs suite (1 bed/1 bath) with 540 sq ft of space - Dishwasher - Central A/C - Whole house air filtration system - 1-car electric garage - Small garden area - New windows and kitchen cabinets installed in 2021 I have two Siberian huskies that live on the property, so pets are negotiable and determined on a case-by-case basis for fit. Pets must be neutered/spayed, up to date on vaccines, and registered with the City. The house is available August 1st, 2024, but a July move-in is possible (this depends on the current tenant). A 12-month lease is preferred; ideally, we would like someone looking to stay for longer than a year. Neighbors are tight-knit, friendly, and often around the property. - $2700 security deposit due at lease signing - First-month rent due ($2700) with key exchange
