The Ultimate Year-Round Lake Home

The Ultimate All-Season Lake Home. Custom 4 BR, 3.5 Bath, 2426 sq.ft. Contemporary + Sleeping Cottage designed around privacy, light and endless views.

This architect-designed retreat was built in 2019 with top-tier durable, energy-efficient materials and systems by the best of our local artisans. Core aesthetic is clean, crisp lines meets laid-back comfort – with the focus always on the lake views.

Every room has a view! The house is sited on a bluff 50 feet above the lake. Outdoor living spaces include multiple vantage points for enjoying the changing seasons, changing light, changing colors of the lake and tree canopy — including private decks, porches, patios and fire pit. Sitting by the fire at the water’s edge is a whole different experience than the panoramic views you have from the bluff.

Privacy on 1.44 acres. Just 86 steps to the level lakefront with a secluded landscaped patio and fire pit. There’s a dock, boathouse and sail shed. PLUS there’s convenient waterfront vehicle access and deeded pedestrian access from the neighboring Ithaca Yacht Club.

Ideal location: Just 1 minute to Ithaca Yacht Club, 2 minutes to Black Diamond Trail, 5 minutes to the Hangar Theatre & Cass Park, 7 minutes Taughannock Falls State Park, 10 minutes to Downtown Ithaca and 15 minutes to Cornell.

The open plan layout merges the living, dining, and kitchen areas for easy socializing. Cook’s Kitchen with 5-burner gas cooktop, granite counters, large island and breakfast bar. Custom cabinets include warming drawer and pan drawers. Coffee Bar and Prep Kitchen with Farmhouse sink. Wine bar and beverage cooler. Living area has gas fireplace. Spacious dining area with built-in banquette seating offers a front row seat to the view and opens to the covered porch and huge patio – perfect for outdoor grilling and entertaining. Oh, and there’s a bocce ball court too!

An intimate Primary Suite with a private deck, walls of glass, vaulted ceiling — the space is scaled to be all about the views. Out on the deck is where you’ll enjoy your first cup of coffee, the sunrise and the wind in the trees. The Primary Suite also includes a walk-in closet and bath.
