About this home
Welcome to the historic Gifford House, one of Lakewood's most treasured homes. Once part of the original Gifford Farm, this beautifully restored residence sits on one of the largest residential lots in the Village of Lakewood, offering a rare combination of history, privacy, and modern comfort.
Tastefully renovated, this five bedroom home is ready to enjoy from day one. A formal entry welcomes you inside where an elegant open staircase, spacious living areas, hardwood flooring, and timeless architectural details create warmth and character throughout. The first floor features an inviting eat in kitchen with quartz countertops, a charming morning room, formal dining room, first floor laundry, and comfortable gathering spaces perfect for everyday living or entertaining.
Upstairs you will find five generously sized bedrooms along with a finished attic that provides flexible additional living space for recreation, hobbies, or guests.
Step outside and discover a truly remarkable setting. A picturesque creek winds through the property, complete with a private bridge, creating a peaceful backdrop unlike anything else in the village. Enjoy evenings around the fire pit, relax beneath the covered patio, or take advantage of the tree house nestled among the mature trees.
The original two car garage/barn offers excellent storage with a spacious second floor, making it ideal for seasonal equipment, workshop space, or future possibilities.
As an added bonus, deeded Chautauqua Lake rights include access to a shared dock at the end of the road. The public beach, boat launch, restaurants, boutiques, parks, and village amenities are all just moments away.
Whether you are searching for a year round residence or a vacation retreat, the historic Gifford House is a rare offering that combines timeless charm, modern updates, an exceptional setting, and an outstanding Lakewood location.
Most Furnishings are negotiable. Delayed showing/negotiations begin Sunday, July 12, 2026 at 3:00pm. One of the sellers is a PA licensed Real Estate Salesperson...
