About this House

Built in 1840 and nestled on two bucolic acres, this beautifully renovated farmhouse is our family home and we'd love to share it with you while we're away. This 6 month lease is available from January 2027 through June 2027 in Lansing, NY. Just 10 minutes from Cornell University and Ithaca's dining, farmers markets, and cultural scene, there is easy access to Finger Lakes hiking, wineries, and skiing.

The home strikes the perfect balance between old-world character and modern comfort. Wide plank wood floors, generous room proportions, a fully updated kitchen with custom cherry cabinetry and tile floors, a cozy living room wood stove, central heat & air conditioning, renovated bathrooms and laundry room - everything ensures that daily life is easy and comfortable. The home is move-in ready, fully furnished and lovingly maintained.

The kitchen opens into a warm, casual family room with comfortable seating for everyone. It overlooks a deck and stone patio where you can enjoy beautifully landscaped, fenced grounds - ideal for children, pets, and lazy weekend mornings with coffee. With 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a dedicated first floor home office, there is ample space to spread out, work remotely, and truly settle in. The property includes expansive grassy areas, fruit trees, thriving berry patches, woods, a barn once used for horses, and a chicken coop with laying hens.

First floor:

* Family room: full-size sleeper sofa with chaise lounge
* Half bath

Six-month lease. Utilities and yard maintenance included. Fully furnished.

Available in 2027 from January through end of June (start and end dates can be flexible).

Pets considered on an individual basis. No smoking.

Utilities are included: water, septic, internet, trash pick-up. At least 1/2 ton of wood bricks will be left for wood stove use. Driveway plowing and lawn mowing included.

Parking is off-street.

We have a small number of pet laying hens and would like help caring for them: tenants collect eggs and make sure they have clean water and food daily. We provide food. Rent has been discounted to account for help. Pet-sitters can be arranged if you are out of town on a short term basis.

Please note that there is a separate carriage house on the property with a quiet, long-term tenant.

    "It is a very easy commute to downtown. Slightly more to the colleges. I consider commutes under 15 minutes to be easy though. I know Ithacans complain about traffic at the “octopus”, but that’s only because most of them have never seen traffic."

The people are great and Northeast Elementary including the Ithaca City School District is beyond amazing. Northeast Ithaca is close to Cornell University. There are many reasons why homes in in Northeast Ithaca are in high demand."
