Welcome to Fay’s Point Beach House, an iconic legacy waterfront estate on the shores of Owasco Lake. This extraordinary Arts & Crafts style residence traces its origins to 1912 and represents a rare opportunity to own a documented piece of Finger Lakes history. Set on 1.9 acres with approximately 610 feet of shoreline, the property occupies one of the most distinctive settings on Owasco Lake. Positioned on Fay’s Point with panoramic lake views on three sides, the estate offers a sense of privacy, permanence, and presence that is impossible to replicate today. Inside, the approximately 3,000 square foot home retains the warmth and craftsmanship of a true Finger Lakes lakeside residence. Rich original woodwork, hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, walls of windows, and a stunning stone fireplace alongside two additional brick fireplaces create an atmosphere that is timeless and authentic. The expansive lakeside living room was designed for gathering, entertaining, and taking in breathtaking 270-degree water views throughout every season. The kitchen features hand crafted black walnut cabinetry hand built over 50 years ago. The flexible floor plan includes four bedrooms and two full baths, including two first floor bedrooms and first floor laundry. One of the downstairs bedrooms is currently being used as a study and would make an exceptional writer’s room or lakeside workspace. Upstairs, both bedrooms retain original sink areas and adjacent water closets that preserve the home’s architectural character and charm. Outside, manicured grounds, a stone seawall, waterfront gazebo, and sweeping shoreline create an unforgettable lakeside setting. Included additional lots across West Lake Road provide additional parking, future flexibility, privacy, compound potential, and possible hospitality or development opportunities rarely found with waterfront properties of this scale. Fay’s Point Beach House is more than a home. It is an irreplaceable waterfront estate that has stood along the shores of Owasco Lake for generations and remains one of the Finger Lakes’ truly special offerings. Properties of this scale, history, and presence rarely become available.
