Description
Expansive custom-designed multi-level home offering four bedrooms and four full baths, thoughtfully crafted with soaring cathedral ceilings, tongue-and-groove natural wood, oak trim, hardwood floors, and an open floor plan that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. The main living area is anchored by a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with a Jotul woodstove insert capable of heating the main and upper levels. The spacious kitchen features sliding doors that open to a sunny deck. Additionally there is an impressive 1,162-square-foot covered porch which wraps around three sides of the home, offering multiple vantage points to enjoy the sights and sounds of country living. A large tiled mudroom and laundry room provide the perfect space for boots, coats, and gear after a day spent outdoors. The main-level primary suite features hardwood floors, a spacious full bath, and private sliders opening to a secluded section of the porch, while an additional full bath on the main level adds convenience for guests. Upstairs are three more generously sized bedrooms along with a large office or guest room, making the layout ideal for extended family or visitors. The walkout lower level offers exceptional flexibility and is currently used as a sprawling recreation room with a home media nook, perfect for pool, ping pong, crafts or studio. This level also includes a full bath and has direct access to the side yard for outdoor entertaining. Outside, sliding doors open to a large loose-stone patio complete with a firepit and a 15-foot swim spa that can also serve as a hot tub when hosting friends and family. For hobbies, storage, business use, or vehicles, the property also includes a 36 x 28 oversized two-bay garage and attached carport with power and water. Privately set on 3.95 acres with no neighbors in sight, the grounds offer 360-degree privacy with an expansive lawn, raised-bed gardens, woods, and a scenic stocked pond, creating a haven for wildlife and plenty of room for domestic animals or simply enjoying nature, all conveniently located just 10 miles to Horseheads, 17 miles to Ithaca, and 15 miles to Watkins Glen and beautiful Seneca Lake.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIntensive scheduling where half the semester was literally retaking old tests taught me how to take a test, but was a HUGE setback in effectively writing papers, problem solving, or learning much more than how to take a test. If the district hasn't done away with it, DON'T let your children be roped into the Regents program!Other Review5y ago - Horseheads Middle School

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBus drivers are horrible at their jobs, can't handle kids and they become very chaotic, their drop off and pick up system MAKES kids late, they have too short of a 10th period and no one is allowed to leave (even an instrument pass), multiple teachers leave the classroom and leave kids alone, multiple bullying/attempted bullying incidents (including myself), multiple fights (a kid got hit in the head with a metal water bottle and continued to come to school not even a week later), they rarely update their website, they had a teacher who was retired come back because they didn't have enough teachers instead of having a substitute, and overall is just a bad school.Student Review2mo ago - Ridge Road School
