79 Bank Street Newfield, NY 14867

Charming 1800s home in the hamlet of Newfield, just 5 miles from the City of Ithaca, set on a generous 0.81-acre lot with frontage on two roads and convenient access to local amenities, schools, and the iconic covered bridge. Thoughtfully maintained and rich in character, this inviting property offers a flexible floor plan that lives comfortably as either a two- or three-bedroom home, featuring a main-level bedroom that can easily function as a family room, office, or guest space, along with two well-proportioned bedrooms upstairs. The main floor showcases high ceilings, plank flooring, original doors, and spacious, light-filled rooms, complemented by a charming country eat-in kitchen detailed with both traditional and diagonal beadboard accents. A standout feature is the expansive, fully renovated bathroom (2023), complete with a stylish glass-enclosed shower, solid surface vanity, abundant storage, and a conveniently integrated laundry area.

Extensive updates in recent years—including the roof, gutters, soffits, siding, windows, furnace, central air, water heater, rear deck, and interior paint—provide peace of mind while preserving the home’s historic appeal. The upper level bedrooms, renovated in 2024, offer bright, comfortable spaces with added storage tucked under the eaves. A combination of blown-in, fiberglass, and rockwool insulation, paired with updated windows and mechanical systems, contributes to improved energy efficiency and year-round comfort.

The full walkout basement features classic laid stone walls and offers excellent potential for workshop, hobby, or storage space. Outdoors, the property truly shines with a beautiful blend of open lawn and wooded areas, providing ample room for gardening, recreation, pets, or future outdoor enhancements. Relax and unwind on the welcoming composite decked front porch or dine on the newer rear deck overlooking the expansive backyard. A well-cared-for, move-in ready home offering space, flexibility, and charm, all within minutes of Ithaca, Treman State Park, and Buttermilk Falls State Park.
