True North Luxury Lakefront Retreat with Stunning Views of Lake Ontario

Welcome to our lake house set high on Rigney bluff on the shores of Lake Ontario in Rochester, NY.

You have found the perfect lake house for get away any time of the year. This 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home has 2500 square feet of living space with 75 feet of water front and glorious panoramic views of Lake Ontario.

There are 4 stone patios for entertaining, one with an outdoor kitchen area that boasts a pizza oven and 40" gas grill. The lower patio has a fire pit at the water’s edge perfect for roasting marshmallows and making s’mores. Plan to be amazed by incredible sunrises and sunsets, a variety of birds and wildlife (including a family of mink that live in the rocks below the patio), shooting stars and the sound of waves rolling into shore.

We have hosted many families for hockey tournaments, college graduations, Lilac Festival, summer arts and concerts, wine tours and holidays. Set up perfectly as home base for bbq's and family dinners with time afterward at the fire pit.

The house is meticulously maintained and provides the comforts of home. The main floor offers views of the lake with an open concept dining area that seats 8, living room and kitchen with a granite counters and island seating up to 4. Access the patio from the kitchen sliding doors for easy entertaining indoors and out. The lower level has a tile floors, a full bar with additional seating and a family room that opens to another tier of the stone patio and outdoor dining and seating area. The second floor has three bedrooms. The king bedroom has a private deck with views of the lake and incredible sunrises every morning. The third bedroom has 2 twin beds and the fourth bedroom has a queen bed. This floor shares a bathroom with tub and shower. The third floor Ensuite includes a queen size bed, private deck, and tiled bath with a walk in shower. Use the Climbr exerciser in the master closet for a full body, low impact aerobic workout. The bedrooms provide sleeping for 8 with sofa beds available in the living room and bar. The basement provides a full size washer and dryer and half bathroom.

Amenities include Wi-Fi, central air conditioning, towels, bedding, pillows, kitchen and grilling utensils, dishes, pots and pans, starter coffee and teas, some spices, dish and laundry detergent, washer and dryer, ice maker, patio furniture and parking for up to 5- 6 vehicles in the driveway and garage.

Charlotte Beach, 1.8 miles east is part of Ontario Beach Park and popular place to swim, play beach volleyball, use the pickle ball courts, ride a restored 1905 Denzel Carousel, and enjoy free concerts Wednesday nights all summer long. Take walks along the pier, tour the Charlotte – Genesee Lighthouse, the oldest active lighthouse on Lake Ontario, and dine at one of the many fine establishments in the area.
