About this House
Forest Home Lodge has a story already more than a century in the making and is an exceptional place to begin your next chapter. Set along Fall Creek in one of Ithaca’s most storied neighborhoods, this remarkable 1910 residence feels tucked into nature, yet Cornell University is just beyond the doorstep.
Built as the home of Ithaca’s first judge, the main residence carries character in its gracious rooms and original details. A beautiful chestnut staircase anchors the interior, while generous gathering spaces, a gas fireplace, and a formal dining room create a home equally suited to quiet evenings and memorable occasions. In the kitchen, natural stone countertops, double ovens, and plentiful cabinetry provide the function expected for modern living.
However, some of the best moments may happen outside. Settle into the porch swing, tend the flower and vegetable gardens, or simply enjoy the privacy created by the mature landscape and fully fenced yard. From here, an afternoon walk can lead to Beebe Lake, the Cornell Botanic Gardens, nearby waterfalls and trails, or directly onto Cornell’s campus.
A separate Carriage House expands the possibilities with a heated two-car garage and a private one-bedroom apartment with its own kitchen and bath. It’s a valuable and versatile space for guests, extended family, work-from-home needs, or potential rental income.
Behind the historic architecture is an impressive commitment to efficiency. Three solar arrays, hybrid water heating, and energy-efficient heat pumps bring modern heating and cooling to the property while contributing to remarkably low electric costs for much of the year.
A truly special Ithaca property where history, nature, and modern living come together in an extraordinary location.

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

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
