About this property

AMAZING Lakefront And Well Designed Lakehouse: That Is Sure To Please

Beautiful newly constructed lakeside bungalow located on the east side of Seneca Lake. Tastefully crafted home (construction completed early 2013), is sure to please. Be the first to enjoy and relax in Seneca Bungalow.

The home sits on the east side of Seneca Lake and is easily accessible. Enjoy the large level beach only steps away from the front porch.

Seneca Bungalow offers a custom, clean, comfortable, lakeside cottage where memories can be made. A well designed functioning floor plan with 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. Downstairs you will be welcomed by a tastefully decorated and relaxing living room with gas fireplace, dining room, full bath and kitchen with island and wine fridge. A master bedroom with king bed, and classic private bathroom with jetted tub are on the first floor as well.

Upstairs are 2 large comfortable and welcoming lakeside bedrooms (each with a queen bed and pull out couch), and a bunk room (2 bunk beds), and a full bathroom with laundry.

Fine finishes, master craftsman, care, and attention to detail were the owner’s goal with crafting this wonderful Finger Lakes getaway. The property has been in the owner’s family for over 50 years. Details include mahogany porches, upgraded electronics and appliances, central air, on demand hot water, and most important great outdoor/lakeside space for relaxing and/or entertaining.

The great floor plan is designed for large groups and entertaining, as well as separate space to get away and relax. Seneca Bungalow is very functional and comfortable for friends and families alike. Outside you will love the level beach and enjoy the beautiful sunsets.

No matter the time of year, Seneca Bungalow is a great place to relax, entertain, bond, and build wonderful memories.

Lovely home, but ....
The little bungalow is immaculate, cozy, and filled with the finest linens, glassware, games, DVD's, and kayaks. Truly, the bungalow is cozy and comfortable. Our difficulty with this rental was that we had children from 18 mos to 9 yrs of age and safety is always the issue. The home is located just feet from busy East Lake Road; the children could play only on the small patch of grass behind house. The dock surface becomes extremely hot in the summer sun. And, there is not a safe dock ladder. There is a foot long plank missing in the dock that someone can easily hurt themselves if they fell through. One is not able to call our host as he does not pick up the phone and his mailbox is filled. Emailing him through the VRBO website is a bit more successful. Reservation ID #HA-JH1HPF

Another fantastic Seneca Bungalow stay!!
This was our 4th stay, and we can’t say enough about how wonderful this home and its host is. It’s always spotlessly clean and maintained, and the layout works perfectly for our group of four couples. Location on the lake is perfect, and close to some of our favorite winery stops. Top notch all around, thank you Calvin for sharing this gem with us. Already looking forward to stay #5!

About the host

Host profile image
Born, raised and LOVE the Finger Lakes!! Love sharing Seneca Bungalow with guests. I have always been passionate about Real Estate and have made it my career. I own and manage a few Vacation Rentals and am the Owner/Broker of a boutique real estate brokerage.

Why they chose this property

This "property" has been in the family since the 1950's as my grandparents build the first "summer structure" on the property. When an opportunity arose for me to purchase the property, I did not hesitate. I purchased the property in 2011 and completed construction of Seneca Bungalow in 2013 after a complete demo of the original "summer structure" that my grandparents had built.

What makes this property unique

Location - Location - Location. Close proximity to Geneva, near many great wineries and breweries. The lakehouse has a great level beach, and is perfectly designed to build great memories. Whether the fire on the beach after an amazing sunset. Sitting on the porch relaxing. The well equipped and designed bungalow. THE PROPERTY IS WITHOUT A DOUBT SURE TO PLEASE!!
