Description

Set on the edge of Cornell University in the highly sought after Belle Sherman neighborhood, this distinguished circa 1925 Tudor Revival offers a rare combination of architectural character, location, and history. Positioned within a quiet, walkable, non student setting, the home provides immediate access to campus while maintaining a sense of privacy and neighborhood charm. Rich in original detail, the home showcases exquisite woodwork, hardwood floors throughout, and a stunning central staircase that anchors the interior. Thoughtfully maintained and updated, major systems including mechanicals, plumbing, electric, and interior finishes have been renovated, allowing for modern comfort while preserving historic integrity. Spanning four full levels of living space, the home offers exceptional flexibility and scale. The main level features gracious formal spaces including a parlor, formal living room, dining room, and a den with fireplace, along with a renovated kitchen and baths. Two screened porches extend the living space and provide peaceful areas to relax and entertain. The second level includes five bedrooms and two full baths, all thoughtfully positioned, along with a secondary staircase that enhances functionality. The additional levels provide further living and storage options, ideal for a variety of needs. A separate entrance leads to a finished lower level space, ideal for an in-home office or private workspace, with convenient access from the main house as well. The property’s history adds a unique layer of distinction, having hosted members of the Johnson School of Management and the family of Charles Dyson during their time at Cornell. Set on a beautifully maintained lot with mature landscaping, the home also offers a large, deep driveway with off street parking for four vehicles, an uncommon amenity in this location. A truly rare offering combining timeless Tudor architecture, four levels of living, exceptional woodwork, and an unbeatable location just moments from Cornell.
We estimate this home will sell faster than 90% nearby.
