Behind a curving, maple-lined drive above Cayuga Lake stands one of the Finger Lakes’ most graceful early homes: Hop Meadow Farm- an 1816 brick Greek Revival with a full temple-front portico, fluted columns, and black-shuttered windows framed in cut stone. Over the past twenty years, the owners have restored Hop Meadow Farm with patience and taste, creating a home true to its origins yet effortlessly comfortable. Inside, a soaring entry hall features wide-plank pine floors and a sweeping curved staircase with hand-turned rail. Tall doorway casings open to a formal dining room and fireplaced living room, each with its original brick hearth. At the heart of the home, a vaulted, beamed kitchen and family room draws in natural light through skylights and gathers around a second brick fireplace, with a Viking range and long farm table at its center. Three bedrooms and three baths complete the home, with Carrara marble, Shaker-style vanities, and glass-walled showers, plus a bright laundry room with marble counters, sink, and abundant cabinetry. A glass-and-copper conservatory opens to a broad bluestone terrace framed by hydrangeas.The grounds are the second act. Twelve acres of manicured lawn roll down to a large pond with a fountain, a dock, and its own tiny island, with Adirondack chairs set under a spreading walnut to take it all in. Geese settle on the water each season and deer move through the meadow edges at dawn and dusk. This is a property that lives with the wildlife around it. Established perennial borders, mature shade trees, and a raised-bed vegetable garden surround the house, and the restored barn offers ground-level space for equipment, animals, or a studio, with a finished loft above that has become the property's party room- a big, open space for gatherings that spill over from the terrace. Hop Meadow farm is conveniently located minutes from Aurora, the Inns of Aurora, the former site of Wells College, and the Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, with Ithaca, Auburn, and Skaneateles within easy reach. Hop Meadow Farm has been loved for twenty years and is ready for its next chapter.
