Situated on 92 acres of farmland, this 3,800 sq ft home boasts unparalleled views of Cayuga Lake and the surrounding landscape. As you pull up the driveway, you are greeted with a 24 acre crop field to your left and 2 large barns on your right, one of which dates back to the mid/late 1800s and the other build in 2020.

The outside of the house offers a large east facing deck that is perfect for a morning cup of coffee or an evening cookout with the family on the new Weber grill. Afire pit is located just off the deck with 12 Adirondack chairs. Plenty of open space for the family to run around and play or relax while playing some yard games (Cornhole, Volleyball/badminton and CanJam are available).

Inside is where the charm of this old farmhouse shines while the recently updated kitchen (including all new GE Cafe appliances) and bathrooms bring new life to this house. A full sized dining room allows guests to enjoy meals with the entire party, while the family room, living room and the study allow some separation if needed. Two staircases grant access to the upstairs where there are 5 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. All mattresses are brand new and are covered by down-alternative comforters and Pendleton wool blankets (Each room is named after a US National Park and incorporates the matching Pendleton wool print). A common room upstairs is perfect for the kids to enjoy a slumber party together or close the doors and you have 2 separate and private upstairs spaces (bedroom #1, #2, #3 and 1 bathroom on one side with bedroom #4, #5 and 1 bathroom on the other).

    Our long weekend in Rob and Heather’s gorgeous farmhouse was wonderful. We visited our daughter who is a student at Cornell to celebrate her birthday and enjoy a get away with family. We are a multigenerational family with grandma at age 85 and the youngest cousin at age 14.The view of lake Cayuga was breathtaking! The house offered a huge dining area to accommodate us all and plenty of space to enjoy each other’s company. The bedrooms were quite comfortable and the views from the windows were well enjoyed. Rob responded very quickly to any question posed. It was a perfect home to relax in a beautiful and peaceful location.

    Beautiful home- they thought of everything! The location is perfect for visiting wineries and restaurants and it is an easy drive to Ithaca. We will definitely return!

    That moment when you get to the end of the driveway and go check out the view of the lake before even going in the house... The property was everything you hope for and then some. We spent a lot of time around the fire pit, because this is the perfect place for it. 9 people and still rooms to spare. Really enjoyed our stay.

    Love, love, LOVE this property! 12 of us stayed herevfor a 50th birthday get away! The view of the lake is AMAZING, the house and bathrooms are spotless and very well stocked with supplies, silverware and kitchen ware you may need. The bedrooms are large and beds are cozy. Beautiful deck large enough for the entire group to sit out and watch the sun set over the lake. The kitchen island is small but there is a large dining room table to gather around instead of the kitchen island. Our only suggestion is that it would be nice to have more comfortable seating at the island and out on the deck but otherwise we had a blast and hope to return next year. We used the outside fire pit and Adirondack chairs to gather in the evening and a lot of laughs were had playing pong pong and pool in the basement level.

    This was a lovely house that sits on a beautiful property. It was about a twenty minute drive to Ithaca, but we didn’t end up minding it because of the location that included a fire pit, expansive grounds, and view of the lake. There isn’t an en suite for the master, but the charm of the house and location made up for it.

    We had a wonderful stay. The house and property are even more beautiful than the pictures. It is very quiet and serene overlooking the lake. The house was very clean with comfortable / firm beds. There was plenty of space for our family of 6 adults and 2 toddlers. The location was amazing and being so close to Taughhanouk park was perfect for us and the kids, The house was better appointed than many others I’ve stayed in with plenty of nice cookware, dishes, serveware etc. we had a great stay and hope to visit again soon!

    We’ve been vacationing on the Finger Lakes for the last 15 years…and finally found THE PLACE! Beautifully renovated, thoughtfully provisioned, this property maintains an historic farmhouse feel, with the best view on the lake. This is the first time we didn’t rent a waterfront home..and we were rewarded! Conveniently located for all activities, there were days we never left the property! We’ve already booked again for next year!

    This was a great stay for our family. The large, expansive yard was enjoyed by our children during their soccer and frizbee games. The farmhouse was just as advertised. It's in a beautiful setting, overlooking Cayuga Lake. It's only a few miles from some state parks. We enjoyed the many waterfalls in the area. My only complaint: That we couldn't stay longer.
