    What's special

    This three bedroom / one and a half bath home is MOVE-IN-READY. Situated on just over three acres of level land, it has over 400 feet of road frontage with the house & garage situated to one side of the property. The porch and kitchen windows overlook a running stream. One of the pictures was taken in the spring to show the close proximity of the house to the stream. The stream bank could easily be developed for a creek side lawn and gazebo. The property has a two story detached garage which includes two over-sized vehicle bays and a full shop area at ground level. You can see in the photos that even with a full size SUV parked in the garage, there is still 12 feet of open space in front of the vehicle. In the shop area next to the vehicle bays there is a 36 inch open staircase to a full walk up second floor. The second floor is wide open and unfinished for easy conversion into a rental, Airbnb or In-Law apartment. The driveway area has a large open pad which can simultaneously accommodate an RV and several additional automobile parking spaces. The house has an enclosed, heated front porch for reading and a long, open side porch as seen in the photos. There are two heating options with a primary steam heat boiler as well as a Vermont Castings wood stove hearth in the kitchen, which is routinely used to heat the entire house with no other heating fuel required. The property, the garage and the house are much larger than they appear to be in these pictures. There are unlimited options to expand or update the existing home to your liking. You could also choose to live in the existing house while you build your dream home right next door on your own property. One of the pictures was taken from the very back corner of the property showing the open field for building, with the current house, garage and road frontage in the distance. It is a 0.8 mile drive to the village line from this driveway. Under 90 seconds drive to get to town in the car. This is a new listing, currently for sale by owner. The price will go up proportionately if we chose to list with real estate. Come take a look before that happens to save yourself $12K if purchase through real estate. If you are new to the area, Skaneateles is a highly sought lakeside vacation village for down state (NYC, NJ, LI.) residents. If you have only vacationed here in the past, consider setting up your upstate vacation or retirement property in Skaneateles. Rent it or Airbnb it until you are ready to make the move. Perfect for sportsmen all year around. This property is just minutes away from public and private golf courses, Broadway quality summer-theater, hiking and biking trails, country clubs, a small plane rural airport and a NYS public boat launch among other things. If you visit regularly, you already know that the downtown shops include: fine jewelry, fine dining choices, a furrier, artisan bakeries, coffee shops, micro-brew tap rooms, art galleries, artisan crafts and clothing. It ss only a 20 minute drive to the 6th largest shopping mall in America. Most of the pictures are of the house and property. The last few were taken in and around the village. I highly recommend a Google search for the following sites: First and foremost, The Village of Skaneateles NY. Research these great attractions as well: Finger Lakes Wine Trail, Greek Peak, Song Mountain, The Sherwood Inn, Mirbeau Inn & Spa, Merry-go-Round Theater, Skaneateles Country Club, The Krebs, The Sinclair, Anyela's Vineyards, Judge Ben Wiles, Destiny USA, Everson Museum, Beak & Skiff, Craft Beer.....
