A Rare Opportunity on Cazenovia Lake – 4705 East Lake Road
Step back in time and envision the possibilities with this iconic lakeside estate, a true local treasure. Originally built in 1875 as a grand summer residence, this historic 9,008 sq. ft. home sits on 1.69 acres with 250 feet of pristine lake frontage on the desirable east side of Cazenovia Lake.
Currently used as a private retreat for a local College, the home features 28 rooms across three floors, including 10 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and 6 original fireplaces. Elegant details abound, from the formal wood-paneled dining room to the expansive main kitchen with a walk-in pantry and separate prep kitchen—perfect for large gatherings or future entertaining.
Whether restored to its original Gilded Age grandeur or reimagined into a modern lakeside estate, this property offers a rare canvas with timeless potential. Offered as-is, this is a one-of-a-kind opportunity to create something truly special on the shores of one of Central New York’s most beloved lakes.
