1510 E Shore Drive

Ithaca, NY 14850

Tucked into a wooded hillside on 6.92 secluded acres, 1510 East Shore Drive commands an extraordinary position above Cayuga Lake, with 321 feet of shoreline and sweeping western views that capture beautiful sunsets. Located within the Lansing School District, this 6,532-square-foot residence offers grand-scale waterfront living surrounded by privacy and natural beauty. A private tram provides step-free access to the shoreline and boathouse below. Arrival through a landscaped courtyard centered by a fountain sets an elegant tone before the home opens into a dramatic two-story atrium with sweeping twin staircases and a crystal chandelier. Beyond, the central living room features a stately fireplace and lake views. The light-filled sunroom and spacious kitchen also overlook the water, while a relaxed family room, private office, and formal dining room balance everyday comfort with gracious entertaining. The upper level is arranged into two private wings. The north wing includes two bedrooms with generous closets and a shared full bath. The south wing is anchored by a serene primary suite with a fireplace, extraordinary lake views, and a private porch ideal for enjoying the sunset. Its spa-inspired bath features dual vanities and a glass-enclosed wet room with a freestanding soaking tub, ceiling-mounted rain shower, handheld shower, and striking tilework. An additional bedroom completes the south wing. The fully finished walkout lower level extends the home’s living spaces with a second full kitchen, dining and living areas, and a separate bar. Private guest quarters with an adjoining full bath offer comfortable accommodations, while the layout flows directly to an indoor pool and oversized hot tub for year-round enjoyment. An additional en-suite bedroom above the three-car garage provides a secluded guest retreat. Outdoors, a private timber-framed covered deck embraces the wooded setting and lake views, while a winding path leads to the private tram and onward to the shoreline and boathouse. A rare expression of Cayuga Lake living, this property offers privacy, gracious living, resort-style amenities, and an effortless connection to the water.
