Idyllic Tower Cottage | House in Ithaca
1 Bedroom House in Ithaca
The tower cottage is a two story 10' wide octagonal tower connected to a main living area of about 22' x 11'. It is tucked into the woods with views of the hillside and pond, and private back deck. The tower was inspired by a trip to the Spanish Pyrenees and it is crowned with a wrought iron scultpure by the local artist/blacksmith, Duran Van Doren.
The living area is furnished with Stickley Mission furniture - a comfortable queen size leather sleeper sofa made up with a memory foam mattress topper, a side tables with three drawers, tabouret tables, a flat screen television on a Harvey Ellis console, a Stickley rocker and a footstool. The dining area has a round Stickely Mission oak dining table with four matching chairs. The kitchenette has an undercounter fridge and freezer, microwave oven, induction burner, coffee maker, and plates, glasses, utensils, etc. There is no kitchen sink, but a basin filled from the nearby bathroom sink functions well if you have dishes to wash up. If you can use anything not listed - such as a blender or juicer or automatic egg cooker, let us know.
French doors lead to a small private back deck in the woods with two comfy chairs and footstools.
The first floor of the tower has a glass tiled shower, a 'water closet' with an odorless waterless composting toilet, and heated floor tiles around the sink and changing area. The composting toilet has two large completely enclosed collection chambers in the basement, and continuous negative airflow, carrying any odors away from the living quarters. Once a year, or two, the compost is removed from the lower chamber and spread as mulch around the orchard.
A wrought iron railing and cantilevered stone steps bring you upstairs to an luxuriously comfortable organic (latex, wool and cotton) California-king bed, custom made for the space by the J.W. Southard Company, a fourth generation family owned business in Syracuse, NY. A door at the top of the stairs opens out to a small wrought iron balcony. There are also wrought iron clothes hooks throughout - also made by Duran Van Doren.
The tower cottage has an air-to-air electric heat pump for heat or quiet air-conditioning, but we’ve found that the tower bedroom functions as a chimney, pulling up cool air from the shaded first floor windows, creating a very pleasant breeze when the weather is not steamy hot. The tower cottage also has wifi and cable television.
