About this House
What's unique:Cascading stairwellTwo-story atriumEnclosed porch
A distinctive mansion-styled residence in the center of Ithaca’s East Hill Historic District,
between Collegetown and Downtown Ithaca, just steps away from Cornell campus. Notable
for its historical significance, the house sits adjacent to Sage House, which is the home to
the Cornell University Press, Cornell’s Board of Trustees and General Counsel offices. This
turn-of-the century architecture was designed and built with exceptional craftsmanship: a
spacious 1 st floor foyer leads to a cascading stairwell and a two-story atrium, a welcoming
living room with two fire places, a formal dining room punctuated by a crystal chandelier, a
private library-office lined with built-in hardwood shelves, and an open kitchen with granite
countertop and oak cabinets. The 1st floor has 3 access doors leading to the front porch and
two decks. The 2rd and 3rd floors provide versatile living space, including 8 bedrooms
decorated with boutique wallpapers, 5 full baths, an enclosed porch, and an additional
kitchen unit. In this context, the comforting feeling and accessibility of the design is
throughout, accentuated by hardwood oak flooring covering the entire house. The house also
has full access to Ithaca’s municipal services. This is a rare opportunity to own one of
Ithaca's unique and beautiful houses, layered in timeless design features and historical
significance.

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe had a great extra Caroline. Maybe kids attended from K-5th. Small class sizes (my sons K class had only 12 kids!) mean lots of teacher-student interaction. Teachers engage the kids with interesting projects and they use the outdoor nature campus for many learning opportunities. The principal was great too. All around a fantastic school!Parent Review4y ago - Beverly J Martin Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIn comparison to other elementary schools of the ICSD, BJM is a truer reflection of inclusion and cultural diversity. If you want your child to learn how to appreciate difference in gender, race, socioeconomic status, ability, and be exposed to a myriad of ways of thought, I would encourage you to consider this school.Other Review8y ago - Enfield School

The class sizes are small, teachers are enthusiastic and supported by their administrators and there is a real sense of community. There is a curriculum centered around gardens and farming. There’s a creek and sledding hills and kids spend a lot of time outside year round.Parent Review3y ago - Fall Creek Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSouth Hill has provided a great educational and social experience for my kid in the two years we've been there. Classes are small, teachers are committed, there is a great number of aides supporting teachers, and there is good social-emotional support. We have experience some minor level of bullying that has been addressed strongly and assertively by leadership, including direct involvement of the Principal who is very approachable and involved in all school matters. Infrastructure is great, there are plenty opportunities for parent involvement as well, and the school is generally well run.Parent Review1y ago - Cayuga Heights Elementary

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe teacher should stop telling the students that they don’t need to go to college. The students should make that decision at the right time in high school. The teacher should focus more on the learning.Parent Review1y ago
