Dean Lake House:"Historic Seneca Lake Home"
Welcome to Dean Lake House, a unique historic getaway built in 1850, perfectly located right on Seneca Lake with over 300 feet of beautiful natural lakefront. Whether you're here to explore the Finger Lakes wine trail or simply unwind with your family, this charming vacation home offers the perfect blend of old-world character and modern comfort.
Step inside and be greeted by large bay windows that flood the home with light and stunning lake views. The main floor features a cozy living room and a separate sitting area, perfect for relaxing with loved ones. You'll love the spacious kitchen with plenty of counter space and a breakfast nook overlooking the water—ideal for morning coffee or casual meals.
This vacation home comfortably sleeps multiple guests, with a queen bedroom on the main floor complete with a private bathroom featuring a Jacuzzi tub and shower combo. Upstairs, you'll find a king bedroom with a full dressing room, another bedroom with a double bed, and a full bathroom. The partially finished basement adds extra space, including a bedroom with a queen sleeper sofa and a half bath, plus an enclosed area great for serving buffet-style meals.
Outside, the long covered veranda is the perfect spot to gather and enjoy the lake breeze. Spend your days on the permanent dock swimming, fishing, or soaking up the sun. The mostly level natural lakefront makes access easy for everyone.
Dean Lake House is just a mile from downtown Watkins Glen, where you'll find quaint shops, restaurants, and groceries, plus easy access to Watkins Glen State Park and Seneca Lake wineries.
