Lakefront Estate with Private Canal, Boat Launch & Acreage. A rare opportunity to own a private lakefront estate spanning approximately 22.6 acres, offering an exceptional combination of water access, privacy, and long-term potential--a property shaped by its history and ready for its next chapter. The property features approximately 450+ feet of lake frontage along Lake Jeffords, along with a private canal providing direct access to the lake. The canal includes one of only two private boat launches on Lake Jeffords, as well as a covered boat lift and dock--an increasingly rare and valuable amenity. The primary residence, built in 2013, offers approximately 5,364 square feet of heated living area and is thoughtfully designed to capture sweeping lake views. The interior showcases a dramatic two-story great room with a stone fireplace, an elegant spiral staircase, and a well-appointed kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, double oven, and prep sink, with recent updates including a newer refrigerator. Both main-level and second-story screened porches overlook the water. Additional improvements include a two-story garage structure with upper-level living space, ready for renovation or personalization, a separate structure currently utilized for storage, and a 700 square foot building designed to accommodate an RV. The property also features horse stalls and a riding ring, supporting equestrian or recreational use. In addition, the property includes a separate single-family residence of approximately 1,200+ square feet, ideal for extended family, guest accommodations, or potential rental income, with the opportunity for renovation or personalization to bring it back to its full potential. The layout and existing improvements lend themselves to a range of possibilities, from a multi-generational compound or guest retreat to an expanded equestrian setup or private lakefront getaway. Lake Jeffords is known for consistent water levels and excellent boating, fishing, and water sports. The property was once home to a ski school, and together with its equestrian features, reflects a long-standing tradition of outdoor recreation and active lakefront living. The property also offers frontage along US Highway 301, providing added visibility and future potential. Comprising three separate parcels, the main house is on 5.7 acres, the second parcel is 5.0 acres and the third is 11.93 acres. These property's provide flexibility for a variety of future options, including estate use, multi-generational living, or potential reconfiguration. With its rich history--from lakefront recreation to equestrian use--this is more than a property; it is a legacy lakefront estate where the traditions of recreation, land, and water continue for generations to come.
