If ever there were an opportunity to restore a timeless farmhouse in a place that simply can't be recreated, this is it. Properties like this don't come along often-not because the house is perfect, but because the setting is. Surrounded by rolling farmland, constant hilltop breezes, far-reaching sunset views, and towering shade trees that have watched over three generations of one family, this is a place where the landscape tells a story worth carrying forward. Set on nearly 2 acres, this property captures the essence of Lansing living, blending its rich history, scenic beauty, and welcoming community spirit with convenient access to Lansing schools, Myers Park, and the recreational opportunities of Cayuga Lake. Perfectly positioned between Ithaca, Auburn, and Cortland, you'll enjoy the b est of country living with everyday amenities. Spanning 2,034 square feet, this home features an eat-in kitchen, a spacious dining room, and an inviting living room. Original built-ins throughout preserve its classic charm. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, along with a tub and the potential for a finished bathroom or laundry area, while a full bath on the main level adds everyday convenience. Tucked away in the woods, the one-of-a-kind outbuilding is a destination in itself. Offering space for one vehicle, an attached carport, and versatile areas for storage, equipment, or agricultural use, it has long served as both a functional workspace and creative refuge. Thoughtfully crafted from salvaged doors, windows, and reclaimed local materials, it stands as a unique expression of folk art and a testament to the beauty that thoughtful restoration can create. Much like the workshop, this farmhouse awaits its next steward-someone with the grit to reimagine, restore, and honor its character while writing the next chapter of its story. Opportunities like this are rare. Any house can be restored, but it's not often you get to stand on your own hilltop and know you're part of a place that mattered long before you arrived, and will matter long after you're gone. Some homes are move-in ready. Others are worth believing in.
