About this property
The Homestead • Historic Charm & Big Backyard
Summary:
Step into the warmth and character of this beautifully remodeled farmhouse, where historic charm meets modern comfort. With three inviting bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and plenty of indoor and outdoor space, The Homestead is the perfect retreat for families, friends, or couples exploring the Finger Lakes. Enjoy wide-open yard space, classic farmhouse touches, and all the amenities you need for a memorable stay.
The Space:
Welcome to The Homestead—a cozy, calming space with history in its bones and hospitality in its heart. While simple on the surface, this newly remodeled farmhouse surprises guests with its warmth, character, and thoughtful details. Whether you’re gathering around the table for board games, sipping coffee on the porch, or unwinding with a book in the backyard, this home makes slowing down feel easy.
Inside, you’ll find original woodwork, preserved architectural touches, and vintage details that nod to the home’s storied past. The furniture is a blend of new comforts and meaningful pieces that have lived here for decades—right down to the wallpaper still lining the bedroom closets. Everything has been lovingly updated to ensure a comfortable stay, including hotel-quality linens, luxurious towels, and high-end, eco-friendly toiletries.
If you’re looking for a peaceful space full of heart, history, and simple joys, you’ll find yourself right at home here.
