This beautiful, contemporary 5,100 square foot (sf) house is set high on a ridge, on a 26 acre-property that is both spectacular and utterly unique. Built in 1989, this home has a stunning 50-mile view to the rim of Lake Ontario. Picture windows throughout the house showcase the view, as does its large deck, built for entertainment and relaxation, with broad staircases leading to walking paths around the property. Among other features, the home has a magnificent grand living room with cathedral ceilings, sky lights and a bar/food serving area; a sunroom with windows on three sides; a formal dining room with a China showcase; four large bedrooms, including a first- floor primary bedroom suite with a spacious walk-in closet and a large bathroom containing heated floors, an oversized tub, and adjacent bedroom designed to function as a gorgeous in-home office if desired; a custom-designed and built kitchen with large eating area and views in multiple directions; and a massive (1,800-sf, 800 sq. ft of the lower level is listed as above grade sq. ft) gym and recreation room. A pond on the property augments the many views. Moreover, this unique property borders hundreds of acres of forever wild preservation foundation land. Included is a nearby90 foot intermittent waterfall (SEE VIDEO BY HITTING THE "VIEW VIRTUAL TOUR"BUTTON OR COPY THE LINK BELOW INTO YOUR BROWSER) at the head of the spectacular “Sherman’s Gulch.” Over its 1.3-mile length, Sherman’s Gulch descends 600 feet to the valley below. Its ridges over the stream bottom rise as much as 300 feet on both sides. Unrelated to the gulch, the foundation land also contains miles of trails for hiking, running, horseback riding, and cross- country skiing. This forever wild acreage protects the Burlingame Road home from any off-property development that could impact its view or damage its character. Notwithstanding its great privacy, this property is only 2.5 miles from the Village of Cazenovia and Cazenovia Lake, and 3 miles from the high school. (WATERFALL VIDEO LINK...
