Some equipment may convey with purchase. Care – Detail - Space – Privacy – Country – Convenience – Efficiency – Comfort - Friends: these are the words that best describe the property and surroundings at 2086 W. Danby Road. Located in the Town of Danby, New York, yet with a Newfield mailing address, you will have the best of both worlds: relatively lower taxes than the surrounding communities, country living, and just minutes away from all the city conveniences, arts, education, dining experiences and entertainment. From its imported Canadian lumber and cedar siding, the hurricane and earthquake reinforcement, extra insulation in ceiling and walls, Corian countertops throughout, to the radiant heat in all floors to keep you comfortable in every season, this home was built with loving attention to detail. The home is energy efficient, NYSTAR rated, quiet, has lots of wall space to hang your memories on, and is ready to move in. Walk-in closets on all three floors can hold all your best clothes and treasures. All wood cabinets and special hide-aways can accommodate everything from your dishes and silverware to the most ardent "collection". The home is spacious with a 380 sq. ft master bedroom with its own balcony and loft, an open spaced living room, kitchen, and dining room with lots of windows to enjoy the privacy and 270 degree views of the hills and valley from your well situated home. Suitable for either a professional person or a large family, this home also has a spacious great room with a separate entrance to ground level. Converted to either office or living space, you have many options open to you. From the 24’ x 24’ deck with its own cabana, there’s room enough for social gatherings, watching the stars, meteor showers, or the Aurora Borealis. There’s more: two outbuildings, one lighted and heated for a year-round workshop, the other is used to store garden equipment, some of which will be conveyed to the new owners. Out back, you’ll find a spring-fed stream that flows all during the year. Your location is ideal: 5 minutes to Newfield School, 7 minutes to Ithaca and shopping, 10 minutes to Ithaca College, and only 20 minutes away from Cornell University. Yet, you will be living in a country setting where you can “kick back” and relax. Watch the deer, fish in your own 3/4 acre certified pond suitable for bass or trout. Plant to your heart’s content with perfect soil conditions. The neighbors have been like family to us, and if it weren’t for our age and health, we’d still be there. Want to know more?
