About this home

Nestled on a private road in West Elmira, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home has 2600 ft.² and plenty of privacy to offer. The house sits on 2 acres, surrounded by trees in a tranquil setting. Hear nothing but the wind passing through the foliage, the native animals frolicking, and potentially your future chickens! This home is zoned to allow you build your flock and combat egg prices! There is plenty of space with two family rooms, one leading to a deck, a finished lower level, and a laundry/mudroom that takes you outside through sliding glass doors. Entertaining loved ones will never feel less cramped! Retreat from the hustle and bustle to the heated and powered she-shed in solitude. Complete with a cleared space with a fire pit to sit and listen to nature. Many updates have been made to help with energy and cost efficiency. A new metal roof was installed in 2024, along with gutters and leaf guards, installation of central air, blown insulation in the attic space, equipped with a whole house generator, replacement windows, a pellet stove, and a 105 gallon pressurized holding tank installed May 2025.
