About this home

623 Elmira Road is like an in-style mullet: city feel in the front, country feel in the back. Adjacent to state land, this two-bedroom, one-bath home offers an appealing opportunity for a first-time buyer or someone looking to start building a residential real estate portfolio. The current owner has invested in several meaningful improvements designed to serve the next owner for years to come, including a metal roof, high-efficiency furnace and Navien water heater. Located just outside Ithaca City limits in the Town of Ithaca, the property offers convenient access whether you're heading east or west, while its backyard setting provides an unexpected connection to nature. Ithaca College, Cornell University, and the Ithaca Commons are all within approximately 15 minutes. If you're tired of renting and ready to put your monthly housing dollars toward something of your own, 623 Elmira Road is well worth considering. A manageable home, convenient location, and a chance to start investing in yourself instead of continuing to line your landlord's pockets.
