Country Charm, Just a Porch Light Away from Trumansburg
She’s not flashy. She’s not fussy. But she’s exactly the kind of house that makes you feel like you’re home—because you are.
Tucked into a peaceful country setting with distant views that’ll make you forget to check your phone, this sweet little spot is just 4 miles from the village of Trumansburg and sits in the sought-after school district.
Inside, it’s 'vintage' —with perks. The kitchen has been smartly updated with quartz counters, there’s a high-efficiency Buderus boiler keeping things cozy, and the hardwood floors upstairs? Exactly what you'd expect for this 1850's house. The ceilings up there are on the lower side—if you're taller than a teenager, you might want to duck. But hey, you’re just sleeping up there. There’s also a first-floor bedroom option (with a full bath), so single-level living is totally doable.
The layout includes two bonus rooms at the front and rear of the house—think office, sunroom, mudroom, studio, whatever suits your vibe—and an attached garage for convenience.
Out back, a deck for your morning coffee or evening exhale, and yes—there’s a barn. Garden, hobby farm, storage, or workshop? The choice is yours.
It’s affordable, it's in a great location, and it’s got that “real home” energy. Come see what a little country calm—and a lot of potential—looks like.
