About this House
Gorgeous three-bedroom lakefront cottage is truly a gem located on Rushford Lake in Rushford NY. Gravel driveway welcomes you with plenty of space for parking for family and friends, along with a designated gravel pad next to the cottage and room for a future garage or an additional cottage. Enjoy the spacious backyard. An inviting deck greets you at the entrance of the home providing a warm welcome and a space to enjoy views of the surrounding hills and sparkling water. Inside, you’ll find stunning hardwood floors throughout and cozy knotty pine walls giving the cottage a warm and inviting feel. The spacious living area is anchored by a beautiful stone-laid fireplace ideal for keeping the cottage toasty on cooler days, while a new mini-split system provides extra heat and air conditioning year-round. Large windows allow abundant natural light to stream through. The kitchen offers plenty of countertop space, a breakfast bar, and new vinyl laminate floors. Three sizable bedrooms, some with built-in dressers, provide ample space for family and guests. The home also includes one full bathroom. The home has been freshly painted throughout making it truly move-in ready. Step outside to your private 50 feet of waterfront with a gentle grade leading to a large level area perfect for gatherings, barbecues, or simply relaxing by the water. The waterfront is ideal for swimming with easy step-in access for kids, and a spacious dock area, recently upgraded, that can accommodate your boating and water activities. Lot size is 0.19 acres. The property features a new septic system approved by Allegany County, along with a new pressure tank and submersible water pump installed by a professional contractor, and there is a recent survey. The current owners have successfully used the cottage as an Airbnb making it a wonderful investment or use as your personal retreat. Located just minutes from Rush Creek State Forest which has over 1,400 acres of hiking and hunting, Rushford Public Beach, Houghton University, and the scenic Letchworth State Park. Must be seen to fully appreciate the breathtaking views, pristine waterfront, and cozy charm this lakefront cottage provides!
