This property is just waiting for someone to give it the love and attention it deserves! Priced appropriately to reflect the opportunity to make it your own, this two-bedroom, one-bath home features beautiful hardwood floors, decorative fireplace, and a few updates already in place. There is a small dressing room/office of the main bedroom which could be used as a nursery. The kitchen has been partially updated (there are a few items the owners are working on). The furnace and hot water heater were installed around 2015, the electrical service has been updated to 200 AMP, and the bathroom has also been updated. There’s plenty of opportunity to refresh and personalize the remaining rooms to suit your style. Bring your vision, add your personal touches, and create a home you’ll love!

About South East
Elmira
South East Elmira, located between the Chemung River and the Southside hills, is a residential and river-adjacent Elmira neighborhood with a grid of tree-lined blocks and a mix of porches and small yards. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Clemens Center Parkway and E Water Street corridor, where civic buildings, galleries, and pre-show foot traffic set a steady tempo. Housing reads as early-20th-century, with compact lots and familiar corner-store spacing. The Clemens Center anchors the cultural calendar, while the Arnot Art Museum adds a quieter, gallery-paced counterpoint. Nearby, Eldridge Park’s paths and lakefront views shape daily routines. Streets slope toward the river, giving many walks a sense of changing elevation and light.

RESIDENCE A
One-Family District
This district is intended to create, preserve and enhance areas of the city composed primarily of single-family residences built at low or medium densities on quiet streets, but which were developed at a period of time in the past when lot sizes were somewhat smaller than those of more recently developed single-family neighborhoods. These areas are still stable and essentially in sound condition and should be protected from the intrusion of uses and activities incompatible with the character of a single-family area. Because of the older and more modest character of this type of neighborhood, a limited amount of uses not of the single family type may have found a place in the district in the past.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Day care facility
Housing-Single unit
Educational/school
Park & open space
