Property Description
This unique property provides a lot of opportunity! This 4-square home features 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths and sits on a rare 1.25 acres, zoned A-1, on the edge of Cortland. This is a prime location with easy access to Route 38, the elementary school, and the amenities Cortland has to offer. The main floor provides a spacious eat-in kitchen, living room, family room, bedroom, 1 1/2 baths, large walk-in closet, and laundry. The beautifully updated kitchen includes stainless steel appliances (2020) and the updated laundry area is equipped with a front-load washer & dryer. The main floor has new vinyl plank flooring and carpet (2025). The 2nd level includes 2 bedrooms, 5x15 walk-in closet, bath, kitchenette with range and refrigerator, and features newer flooring (2023-2025). While there are projects to be done in any home no matter the age, the furnace, A/C, water heater, flooring, main kitchen appliances, and some windows are all newer in this home. There is a large detached garage/workshop (approximately 71x23), perfect for all of your hobbies, or to store your vehicles & toys! The large yard provides ample opportunity for planting a garden to enjoy! While this home has been utilized as a 2-unit for many, many years, it is zoned for single family and the next owner could convert it back to a single family home by adding an interior staircase (presently, the only access to the 2nd level is off the deck). Explore the possibilities! This home is being sold "AS IS".
