OPEN HOUSE, Saturday, 6/20, 11:30-1:00 Nestled in the scenic hills of Danby just four miles from Ithaca, this spacious two-story home offers the perfect balance of country tranquility and neighborhood convenience. Set on 4.65 acres of open lawn and private woods with walking trails, the property features three finished levels of versatile living space. A welcoming covered front porch captures beautiful westerly sunset views and leads into a dramatic two-story foyer highlighted by a Palladian window and elegant oak staircase. The main level showcases oak hardwood floors, a formal dining room, and a comfortable living room, while the open-concept kitchen and family room provide an ideal setting for everyday living and entertaining centered around a cozy gas fireplace. The bright kitchen features granite countertops, crisp white cabinetry, subway tile backsplash with mosaic accent, pantry storage, and a sunny breakfast area overlooking the property. Large windows fill the home with natural light and frame peaceful views of the surrounding landscape. A first-floor laundry room and half bath complete the main level.
