Property Description

A true masterpiece of architecture, artistry, and engineering, this extraordinary estate rests on 2.58 pristine acres along Skaneateles Lake. Lovingly envisioned and meticulously crafted, it is a home designed to impress, to be lived in, enjoyed, and shared for generations. Sunlight pours through custom Marvin windows and doors, illuminating soaring ceilings, beautifully restored 110-year-old heart pine floors, and hand-painted murals by a local artist. Rich mahogany porches, thoughtful details, and acoustically insulated spaces create an atmosphere both grand and inviting.At the heart of the home, the kitchen is designed for gathering, with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a butler’s pantry, and professional-grade appliances. The expansive island and adjoining dining and sitting area—complete with a gas fireplace and stunning lake views—make this the natural center of daily living. A charming greenhouse and plant room add unique appeal.The main level blends elegance and comfort with a grand foyer, spectacular great room with marble fireplace, formal dining room, library, music room/ office, and a private guest suite with veranda. Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms and baths offer welcoming accommodations, with breathtaking lake views. A spiral staircase leads to a third-floor retreat with warm mahogany finishes and a private sun deck.The primary suite is a sanctuary with a fireplace, private porch, beverage station, dual walk-in closets, and a spa-inspired bath with heated marble floors and a steam shower.The lower level is dedicated to relaxation and entertainment, featuring a theater room with a 9-foot screen and surround sound, a bar and lounge, exercise room, and infrared sauna.Outside, beautifully maintained grounds lead to a lakeside cottage perfect for gathering after a day on the water. The pine guest cottage offers additional space with a kitchenette, bedroom, baths, fireplace, gym, and private deck.More than its amenities, this is a home defined by how it lives—welcoming, timeless, and thoughtfully designed for both celebrations and quiet moments. Properties of this quality and character rarely become available on Skaneateles Lake.
