Property Description

In the heart of Skaneateles Village, where life’s finest pleasures are measured in walkable moments to the lake, to the coffee shop, to the pulse of the community, sits a residence that stands quietly apart. Originally constructed in 1899 and set on nearly one acre of land, this home has been entirely reimagined through a multi-year, top-to-bottom transformation completed in 2025. The result is a seamless composition of architectural integrity and contemporary luxury. Every element has been touched with intention. A seamless addition expands the living space to over 3,300 square feet, while the original character has been meticulously preserved and elevated. The home’s interior is a study in restrained elegance: wide-plank white oak floors anchor each space, while custom wood cabinetry, appliance garages, and paneled appliances lend the kitchen the quiet sophistication of a bespoke atelier. Carrara marble flows throughout the home, from the countertops and backsplash to the heated floors in the primary bath and mudroom. The primary bath offers a sense of retreat, with a heated Carrara marble floor, cast iron soaking tub, and tailored brass fixtures that evoke the subtle luxury of a European spa. Significant behind-the-walls investments including all-new electrical, plumbing, triple-pane windows, and state-of-the-art mechanicals deliver peace of mind and whisper-quiet comfort. Step outside and the story continues. A newly constructed side entrance portico provides a gracious transition into the home, while a stone patio off the dining and family room invites effortless outdoor living. Here, a private hot tub offers a year-round retreat, perfect for quiet mornings or evening gatherings. Beyond the patio, the installation of a 16-by-32-foot in-ground pool is underway, with completion anticipated for summer 2025. This home offers not just a place to live, but a lifestyle defined by aesthetic harmony, thoughtful craftsmanship, and the simple luxury of proximity. Moments from Skaneateles Lake, boutique shopping, fine dining, and the cultural heartbeat of the village, this is a home that speaks to those who value beauty, quality, and time well spent.
