About This Home
Experience one of Ellicottville’s most desirable mountain view retreats, ideally located approximately 0.75 miles from the village and offering sweeping panoramic views of the ski slopes, sunsets, and surrounding natural beauty. This beautifully remodeled Craftsman style home blends charm, comfort, and investment potential, featuring 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 full and 1 half bath, and warm wood and slate flooring complemented by stunning woodwork throughout. The inviting layout includes a large eat in kitchen with generous counter space, breakfast nook, built in desk, and first floor laundry, along with a formal dining room perfect for entertaining after a day on the slopes. Multiple gathering areas provide flexibility, including a cozy living room and an additional sitting room centered around a classic brick fireplace ready to be restored. The primary suite offers large windows designed to capture incredible sunset views, while the remaining bedrooms provide comfort for guests and family. Outside, enjoy a flagstone and stone patio ideal for hot tub evenings, bonfires, and year round enjoyment of the peaceful mountain setting, along with ample parking and low maintenance exterior finishes. The property has historically performed as a strong rental and has been enjoyed by many guests, though future short term rentals will require the appropriate municipal permit. Offered mostly furnished and positioned near skiing, golf, mountain biking, and the vibrant village lifestyle, this is a rare opportunity to own a turnkey Ellicottville getaway with outstanding views, proven rental history, and long term value.
