About This Home

1653 Honoco isn't just a new home; it's a rare opportunity to own a brand-new, modern retreat on the shores of Cayuga Lake. This stunning contemporary residence, finished in 2025, is ideally located on the east side of the lake, placing you at the perfect midpoint for spectacular lake and sunset views and easy access to local restaurants and wineries on the lakeside. Step inside the spacious 2,746-square-foot home (agent measured) and be greeted by a bright, open layout designed for effortless entertaining. The gourmet kitchen is a true masterpiece. Imagine gathering around the 14-foot island with seating for up to 15 guests, all while surrounded by premium appliances, elegant polished porcelain floors, and 38 feet of gleaming quartz counter tops. This is more than a kitchen—it's the heart of the home, a space where memories are made. The property embraces the lakefront lifestyle with 165 feet of private shoreline. Whether you're relaxing with a favorite beverage at the covered outdoor bar, hosting a BBQ on the patio, or enjoying a day on the water from your dock (s), this property offers spaces for every activity. The master suite's private balcony provides a serene escape with panoramic, 180-degree views of the water. Built for year-round comfort, the home features a modern HVAC system with in-floor radiant heat for a cozy warmth in the colder months and Mitsubishi mini-splits for a refreshing cool during the summer. This prime location offers the perfect blend of comfort and convenience, just south of the charming Village of Aurora, a short drive from Ithaca, and an easy in and out via RT90, Rt 81, or the NYS Thruway. With ample parking for over a dozen vehicles, a large detached shed, and setup for generator hookup, this property is both beautiful and practical. This portion of the road has recently been paved. Don't worry about painting, the wood siding is coated with a 30 year enamel. Experience the best of lakefront living at 1653 Honoco. Note: Public information notes built in 1955, 1221 sq ft, 3 bed, and 1 bath which was the original, nothing of this remains.
