Beautifully restored historic year-round lakefront home with a 150 feet of private waterfront, nestled on the northern shore of Owasco Lake. This lovely 6 bedroom 4 bath Victorian home situated on over an acre is offered turn-key. This well-built home, originally framed from heart redwood, has been updated both cosmetically and mechanically to include: HVAC system, drainage, electrical, gutters, roofing, flooring, kitchen and baths, etc while still retaining the quintessential elements of a "grand lake home" reminiscent of the late 1800's: sweeping wood planked wrap around lakeside porch, interior carved flutes and wood beams, glassed in second floor atrium (previously a "sleeping porch"), refinished hardwoods, and open second floor balcony. The first floor features; an open rambling country kitchen with stainless appliances, oak cabinetry, and two breakfast bars; sizable formal dining room capable of servicing large parties; Great room with amazing lake view and porch access; sunny living room with gas fireplace; spacious first floor bedroom and full bath; laundry and convenient mudroom / storage. The two story open stairway leads to 3 ensuite bedrooms / bathrooms, 2 additional bedrooms and shared bath, with access to a second floor kitchenette (perfect for visiting guests). The afore mentioned 2nd floor sleeping porch and access to the open lakeside balconies offer a unique vintage feel and vantage point for viewing that very few lake homes can boast. The exterior spaces host a stone patio and fire pit, large tree filled yard, ample parking, and most importantly - level private lakefront. This property is currently utilized as both a family getaway and sought after vacation rental for large parties. The proximity to Emerson Park, Merry-go-round Playhouse, boating, golfing and all the Finger Lakes region has to offer makes this location highly desirable. Delayed showings until Sunday 3/2/25 at 10:00am.
