Family friendly home on Oneida lake with dock

Welcome to Oneida Lake! Come relax at this waterfront retreat located just 25 minutes from Syracuse. The house is nestled on a dead-end road on a large lot with a privacy fence and over 100 feet of lakefront. Prepare a meal in the large chef’s kitchen, or enjoy some time outside bird watching, kayaking, swimming, fishing, or sunbathing. In the winter ice fishing is a must!

The space
The large double lot with a tall wooden privacy fence surrounding most of the property makes it comfortable to relax and enjoy the views of the water while soaking up the sun or watching your children play on the play set. The backyard also boasts a large deck with outdoor furniture and a charcoal grill. There is also a deck on the water's edge that leads to the dock and boat hoist which is to be installed in the spring and removed in the fall.

The large chef's kitchen is sure to impress as we turned this old living space into a dream lakefront kitchen with a commercial 48" 9 burner stove top with a double oven. You will find more than enough seating around the custom-made maple 4'x9' island along with the separate dining table. This space also has a mini fridge for wine and a separate mini fridge for cans. There is a dishwasher and basic cooking amenities. We also added a very large pantry which is located right next to the stocked coffee bar. The kitchen also has a mounted tv.

The living room has a large couch and coffee table facing the television and electric fireplace. There is a bath with a shower off the living room for the guests who stay on the first floor.

There is a queen suite off the first-floor hall with a dresser and a tv.

Off the hall is also a private quiet office for those needing to get some work done. The office also has a futon that folds down into a full bed.

On the same side of the hallway as the office is the laundry/mudroom with a free washer with provided detergent, dryer, and coat hooks.

The second floor is home to our king primary suite with a dresser and his and her closets. This room also has a tv with a private door to the full bathroom with a tub/shower combo. There is another large bedroom where we have added two twin beds and two smaller dressers. This room also has a large closet to hang clothing.

Other things to note
Oneida Lake is full of some amazing history. There are plenty of places to explore. The famous Erie Canal with a museum in downtown Syracuse. Check out Fort Brewerton just minutes from the house and just down the road from that there is a lighthouse with a picnic area. Across the lake from our house is a very nice and clean park Oneida Shores where you can find a boat launch, beach, playground, and picnic areas. Not to be ignored is the amazing fish population with an estimation of over 1 million walleye stated in 2022. The perch and bass fishing is also famous with a professional bass tournament held here some years. With a short drive to the other end of the lake, you can visit Sylvian Beach with a big beach and boardwalk.
