Gracefully overlooking Cayuga lake with lake frontage, this exquisitely restored 1860s stone farmhouse, sits on 12 private acres just outside the historic Village of Aurora. Once a prominent destination for social gatherings—welcoming guests such as author Washington Irving—this remarkable estate captures 19th-century living while offering the comfort of thoughtful, modern updates. The interior of the home exudes charm and sophistication, featuring a newly designed eat-in kitchen with a large quartz island, 8 burner designer range/oven, and butler’s pantry, perfect for both daily living and entertaining. A formal dining room and gracious living room serve as the heart of the home, warmed by four original fireplaces that add a cozy, timeless ambiance. The main floor includes a half bath and a section of the house once used as an art gallery—an inspiring space ready to be reimagined for creative use. Upstairs, four inviting bedrooms provide peaceful retreats, two of which include ensuite baths and one that offers a second-floor laundry for everyday convenience. New carpeting throughout and eight mini-split systems ensure energy-efficient comfort year-round. Outdoors, the charm continues with a beautifully landscaped yard, complete with an elegant stamped concrete walkway and patio that leads to a serene courtyard—ideal for entertaining. Just across the road lies a lakefront parcel 50x200, with newly built custom stairs and a dock platform, offering pristine access to Cayuga Lake. Additional amenities include a detached three-bay garage with upper-level storage, a versatile barn ready for finishing, and modern conveniences such as an EV charger. Currently operating as a successful Airbnb, the property offers income potential or the opportunity to transform it into a cherished private estate or multi-generational haven. A rare offering in one of the Finger Lakes' most picturesque villages, this estate invites you to experience the tranquility and grace of lakeside living steeped in history.
