About this home
The Cutbush House is a one-of-a-kind property nestled high on the west bank of Seneca Lake, offering 186 feet of pristine lakefront. Built circa 1830 by Dr. Edward Cutbush, the founding Dean of Geneva Medical College, this historic home was designed to showcase breathtaking lake views from every room. As you step through the front door, large windows and French doors invite you to take in the expansive vistas.
The home features generously sized open porches on each level, accessible directly from the kitchen, great room, and bedrooms—perfect for enjoying the scenery. Inside, you'll find timeless charm, including soaring ceilings, intricate woodwork, and multiple fireplaces, all complemented by modern updates. The primary suite offers a serene retreat, while the updated kitchen boasts sleek quartz countertops. The bathrooms have been thoughtfully renovated, and a convenient second-floor laundry adds to the home's functionality.
The 1,074-square-foot finished lower level offers versatile space for everything from an in-law suite to a home business, complete with private exterior access and stunning lake views.
For outdoor enjoyment, relax on the brand-new permanent composite dock or entertain guests with a boat lift installation—perfect for mooring boats. A tram makes it easy to access the lake, and the shore shed is equipped with electricity, ideal for a refrigerator or storing lake furniture.
Located in the coveted Historic South neighborhood, this property offers a unique blend of lakefront living, modern convenience, and walkability to downtown Geneva and Hobart and William Smith Colleges....
