About This Home

As of August 2025

Charming 2-bedroom ranch style log home on over 6 acres, situated on the edge of the Java Lake Colony! This home features a spacious open kitchen and living area with vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, a breakfast bar, and a wood stove—perfect for those WNY winters. French doors off the kitchen lead to a large deck, which connects to a partial wraparound deck and a covered front porch—great for enjoying the outdoors. Built in 1997, it offers the warmth of log construction with the benefits of more modern design. The home also features a steel roof and central A/C for added comfort and convenience.

Bring your toys! The 30’x44’ Quonset steel building, equipped with a wood-burning furnace, is perfect for storing ATVs, snowmobiles, or working on projects year-round. Plus, with access to Java Lake, the beach, and community facilities, you can launch your kayak and enjoy the water just minutes from home. Located on the edge of the colony, this property offers more space and privacy while still benefiting from lake access. A great opportunity with so many possibilities—don’t miss out!
