Property Description

Positioned between Skaneateles Lake and Otisco Lake and surrounded by nearly 20 private acres, this one-of-a-kind farmhouse property offers the rare opportunity to create a true multigenerational country retreat in the highly sought-after Marcellus School District. Adjacent to Spafford Forest and located within the Skaneateles Lake Watershed Agricultural Program area, the setting offers exceptional privacy, natural beauty, and added peace of mind through thoughtful surrounding land stewardship. Originally built in 1894 and thoughtfully updated over time, the home maintains its classic farmhouse character while offering the space and flexibility today's buyers are searching for. With 6 bedrooms, multiple gathering spaces, and over 2,800 square feet, there is room to grow, gather, and create lasting memories with the people who matter most. A standout feature of the home is the private first-floor in-law suite complete with separate entrance, kitchenette, laundry, and freshly updated full bath, creating ideal flexibility for shared living arrangements while still allowing privacy and independence for everyone under one roof. Outside, the property transforms into a lifestyle all its own. Spend summers swimming in the spring-fed pond, explore walking trails winding through woods, enjoy the small orchard with berry bushes, or simply take in the abundant wildlife including deer and hawks regularly seen throughout the property. Equestrian enthusiasts, hobby farmers, and outdoor lovers alike will appreciate the impressive 10-stall horse barn and expansive natural landscape. A rustic seasonal cabin tucked within the property creates the perfect setting for hunting weekends, quiet escapes, or unforgettable gatherings with family and friends. Recent improvements include new septic system (2022), furnace (2020), exterior paint (2023), added half bath, and updated full bath in the in-law suite (2023). A rare opportunity to own a true Central New York farmhouse compound offering acreage, privacy, recreation, and flexible living just moments from two of the Finger Lakes region's most desirable lakes. Delayed showings/negotiations begin 5/16/26 at 12PM.
