Set on Corning's historic Southside Hill with second-floor views across the city and valley, this fully renovated 2 bedroom, 2 full bath home offers charm, convenience, and peace of mind in one highly walkable location. Taken down to the studs and renovated in 2020, the home blends the character of an established neighborhood with the ease of modern updates, making it an appealing option for owner occupancy, investment, or a low-maintenance Corning retreat. Inside, the layout is bright, comfortable, and efficient, with updated finishes throughout and a natural flow for everyday living. The first floor offers a spacious eat-in kitchen with granite counters, matching appliances, tile backsplash, and ample cabinetry, along with a welcoming living room, dining room, full bath, and convenient main-level laundry. The side entry opens to a lovely covered patio, creating a private-feeling outdoor space for morning coffee, summer evenings, or a quiet place to unwind after a walk downtown. Upstairs, two bedrooms and a second full bath provide separation from the main living areas, with elevated views that capture the feel of Southside Hill living. The home's scale is easy to maintain, yet the renovation, layout, and two full baths give it flexibility rarely found at this size. The setting is a true advantage-walkable to everything; Wegmans, the Y, Market Street, restaurants, museums, galleries, and Corning's vibrant downtown, while still just minutes from I-86, shopping, the malls, and everyday conveniences. From here, the broader Finger Lakes lifestyle is within easy reach, including Watkins Glen, renowned state parks, wineries, lakes, trails, and year-round recreation. Move-in ready, thoughtfully updated, and ideally located, this Southside Hill home offers the perfect blend of historic neighborhood character, modern livability, and long-term versatility in the heart of Corning.
