A rare offering on Chautauqua Lake, Packard Manor is an iconic estate steeped in history and elegance – plus all the modern conveniences. Built in 1917 by William Doud Packard—co-founder of Packard Electric and Packard Motor Cars—this stately brick manor was modeled after an English estate and crafted by the renowned architectural firm Warren and Wetmore. It sits on 1.2 acres with 180 feet of frontage overlooking the lake within the historic Chautauqua Institution gates.
The grand, 3-story residence features a gracious floor plan with 8 BEDROOMS, 10 FULL and 4 HALF BATHS, an ELEVATOR with handicap access to each level, and magnificent indoor and outdoor gathering spaces. Enjoy stunning LAKEVIEWS from most rooms. Historic charm abounds with 8 FIREPLACES, a Tudor-style reception hall, period friezes, and original architectural elements preserved through a sensitive overall renovation in 1998 and a significant remodel of the kitchen to incorporate a 3 season room into the year-round kitchen space as well as the enclosure of a 2nd floor porch into a Primary Suite sitting room.
The Main Level features a majestic Entry Parlor overlooking the lake that flows into a spectacular formal Living Room and adjacent Library or Den, each with stunning Lake views. A glorious, formal Dining Room with adjacent wet Bar opens to a sun-drenched, window-lined Breakfast Room and sitting Area. The Kitchen features a galley Pantry and a jaw-dropping design that would satisfy any chef and a team of assistants! Windows line 3 sides of the eat-in space and includes a recent upgrade to incorporate a side porch into the area. Laundry Room/ Second pantry and 3 half baths are also on this level. The 2nd Level hosts 3 Lakeside Primary Suites and 3 Guest Rooms with hall baths. A delightful, self-contained 3rd-floor apartment provides flexible living or guest accommodations.
Modern enhancements blend seamlessly with the home’s character and include Central AC, a SPA, SAUNA, WHIRLPOOL, whole-house GENERATOR, and an attached 4-car garage. PRIVATE DOCK. Offered partially furnished.
