1695 Russells

Move right in and enjoy this wonderful lakefront retreat, tucked along Russells Landing on a paved private lake lane just off West Lake Road. This 1939 cottage delivers all the charm and character you'd hope for, one bedroom plus a screened sleeping porch overlooking the water, wood paneling throughout, and a stone fireplace to gather around on cool evenings, while outside a permanent dock and mooring make it easy to bring the boat right home and a shale beach area gives you a spot to wade in or just sit with your feet in Skaneateles Lake's famously clear water. Spend the day out on the boat, then wind down with s'mores around the bonfire as the sun sets over the water, and when you're ready for a change of pace, the Village of Skaneateles with all its shops, dining, and charm is just a short drive or boat ride away. Thanks to being sold turn-key with parking for up to four cars and an electric dryer, this easy-to-love retreat is ready for its next owners to start making memories from the moment they arrive.
