Heart of the Seneca Lake Wine Trail
Conveniently located in Hector, NY, on the east side of Seneca Lake. This renovated farmhouse cottage is bordered by vineyards owned by Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards & is operated as a successful B&B. This is the perfect opportunity for the savvy investor. During warmer months, enjoy a glass of wine sitting on the large back deck while surrounded by grapevines. In the evenings, enjoy a relaxing evening on the deck. The wrap-around front porch provides cool shade and a wonderful breeze for hotter days. The house is fully insulated and heated by a gas furnace, with an electric fireplace for ambiance and a cozy winter stay.
Inside, you'll find hardwood floors throughout the dining and living rooms, a kitchen with modern appliances. A few steps down from the kitchen is a cozy sunroom - perfect for morning coffee! The large full bathroom includes a washer and dryer for convenience. The second-floor features two bedrooms with an incredible view of the vineyards and Seneca Lake from the primary bedroom.
Sawmill Creek Estates (formerly Hector Wine Company) is just across Route 414 – perfect for walking over to enjoy their weekend live music and a glass of wine on their patio. Be sure to check out their artisanal marketplace for fresh, local foods, including meats, cheeses, veggies, fresh breads, and more!
Some of Seneca Lake’s best-known wineries and restaurants are all within less than five miles from the cottage, including Wagner Vineyards & the Ginny Lee Cafe, Scale House Brewery, Hazlitt 1852 Vineyards, Leidenfrost Vineyards, Stonecat Cafe, Red Newt Wine Cellars & Bistro, Damiani Wine Cellars, Atwater Vineyards, Two Goats Brewing, and Finger Lakes Distilling. Enjoy wine tasting, live music and other “off-hour” events hosted by the wineries and restaurants.
Although we do not have lake access, Smith Memorial Park is just 1.5 miles away with a public boat launch, swimming beach, picnic facilities and a small playground. Lodi Point is about 10 minutes north; Clute Memorial Park is 10 minutes south; and Watkins Glen State Park is just 15-20 minutes away.
