    What's special

    Gas fireplacePicturesque brook and waterfallOn-demand boilerFlexible floor planExpansive lake views throughoutWarm natural woodworkLevel lakeside setting
    Rarely does a Cayuga Lake property combine year-round living, easy access, and future potential. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown Ithaca and moments from the Ithaca Yacht Club and Glenwood Pines, this unique waterfront retreat offers a setting that feels worlds away while remaining close to everything. The approach alone sets this property apart. Maplewood Point, a private road shared by just six neighboring properties, offers a remarkably gentle drive compared to many lakefront homes. Cross a picturesque brook and waterfall, follow the quiet lane, and arrive at a level lakeside setting where you can drive directly to your home, park with ease, and enjoy stepless access to both the house and waterfront. The small waterfront community offers a rare combination of privacy, convenience, and neighborly charm. Designed for year-round enjoyment, the home features warm natural woodwork, hardwood floors, a new roof completed in 2026, an on-demand boiler, and expansive lake views throughout. The flexible floor plan includes three bedrooms plus an office, including a spacious primary bedroom with panoramic views of Cayuga Lake. A full bath serves the upper level, while a half bath is located off the kitchen. The mudroom combines laundry and utility space. The inviting living spaces are designed to maximize the waterfront setting, with a gas fireplace and a three-season porch overlooking the lake, perfect for morning coffee, summer evenings, or simply taking in the view. Outside, approximately 63 feet of Cayuga Lake frontage is complemented by a large dock and boat lift, providing exceptional access for boating, swimming, fishing, and enjoying life on the water. The property's unique configuration spans from Maplewood Point to Maplewood Road, creating opportunities for additional access, parking, future expansion, or accessory dwellings, subject to approvals. Whether you're seeking a year-round residence, a waterfront getaway, or a property with long-term potential, this exceptional offering presents a rare opportunity to enjoy the best of Cayuga Lake living. Appointment-only access, first time on the market since 1939.
