There are lake houses, and then there are homes that live on the lake. This rare waterfront bungalow on Skaneateles Lake doesn’t simply overlook the water; it rests at its very edge, as if the shoreline were built around it. Step through expansive sliding glass doors onto a three-tiered deck that hovers just above the surface, where 180-degree views stretch north, south, and east. Below, 107 feet of private shoreline with a natural shale beach offers direct access to the lake, while two docks welcome everything from morning swims to sunset cruises. Mornings begin with the glint of sunrise on glassy water, afternoons unfold to the sound of eagles diving for fish, and evenings are lit by the soft glow of the village lights across the lake. Here, with neighbors high above and out of view, privacy is complete and the lake is yours.
Down a quiet road, tucked within a secluded cove on the west side of Skaneateles Lake, this true waterfront bungalow sits directly on the water’s edge, so close it feels as though you’re living on the lake itself. Expansive sliding glass doors open to a three-tiered deck that seems to hover just above the surface, framing uninterrupted 180-degree views to the north, south, and east. By day, watch eagles glide across the sky, sometimes diving for fish right in front of you. By night, enjoy the soft glow of the village lights shimmering in the distance. With neighbors set high above, the shoreline here remains blissfully private. Life here flows effortlessly between the indoors and the water. Mornings begin with coffee on the dock as the lake mirrors the first light of day. Afternoons bring boating adventures, bass fishing from the shore, or gliding across the water by kayak. For the adventurous, there is water skiing and paddleboarding. For those seeking quiet, a sunset paddle into the cove offers unmatched serenity. Evenings are for alfresco dining on the deck, fireside conversations, and falling asleep to the gentle rhythm of waves just outside your door. Inside, the design is simple, intentional, and anchored by the lake itself. The primary bedroom wakes to sweeping water views each morning, while the secondary bedroom enjoys its own private deck, a secluded spot for reflection or an early cup of coffee. Two docks provide space for both leisure and recreation, while 107 feet of private shale beach invites swimming, barefoot walks, or launching a canoe right from your property. This is more than a lake house. It is a rare, on-the-water lifestyle where every day begins and ends with the beauty of Skaneateles Lake at your doorstep.
