Just outside the historic Village of Aurora, where 1800s mansions and lakeside estates tell the stories of generations past, sits a different kind of home — one built for comfort, practicality, and the kind of everyday living that never goes out of style. This 1957 Cape Cod offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 1.4 acres of open, usable land that feels like a peaceful pocket of the countryside. Step inside and you’re greeted by the warm glow of a stone fireplace stretching across the living room wall — a hallmark of the home’s mid-century craftsmanship. The kitchen blends old and new with its solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and newer appliances, ready for everything from weeknight dinners to holiday baking marathons. The floor plan is as convenient as it is flexible, with two bedrooms on the main level (ideal for one-floor living or a guest suite setup) and two additional bedrooms upstairs. The full unfinished basement is a blank canvas, the attached two-car garage keeps life convenient, and the circular drive makes coming and going a breeze. But what truly sets this home apart are the features you won’t often find in Aurora: Whole-house generator – Because losing power is so 1993. Cistern system – A prepper’s dream and a practical bonus for anyone who likes self-sufficiency. (If you’ve ever said, “I like being prepared,” this place just winked at you.) All of this located minutes from the Village of Aurora, lakeside dining, and some of the most peaceful countryside in the Finger Lakes. BONUS: Pre-inspected & radon tests done—this is the kind of home that works as hard as you do.

Perched on a hilltop overlooking Cayuga Lake, Ingleside, also known as The Stone House, is a distinguished 1860s limestone residence set on 12 acres in the heart of New York’s Finger Lakes wine country. Just minutes from the historic village of Aurora and the renowned MacKenzie-Childs estate, this storied property embodies heritage, refinement, and possibility. In the 1800s, Ingleside welcomed guests including famed author Washington Irving and was home to celebrated Hamiltonian breeding horses. By the early 20th century, it had become the centerpiece of one of Cayuga County’s largest and finest dairy farms. Over nearly two centuries, this hilltop estate has passed through only four owners, each adding to its enduring legacy. Spanning nearly 4,900 square feet, the home reveals original stonework, wood details, and four fireplaces, balanced with modern updates. A chef’s kitchen with quartz counters, oversized island, and professional-grade range anchors the interiors, while gracious entertaining rooms and a second-floor plan with four bedrooms including two with private baths provide both comfort and elegance. The landscaped acreage includes a courtyard patio, detached three-bay garage with loft storage, and versatile barns for equestrian, creative, or agrarian pursuits. Across the road, a private parcel offers 50 feet of Cayuga Lake frontage with custom dock and stairs for direct enjoyment of the water. With its elevated vantage and sweeping lake views, the property also promises exceptional potential for a vineyard and winery. The Stone House balances seclusion with accessibility. It is minutes from Aurora, under an hour to Cornell University, Ithaca, Syracuse, and Rochester, and 30 minutes to the NYS Thruway. Only 4.5 hours from New York City, the estate is positioned for both retreats and year-round living. The possibilities are compelling: a refined private residence, boutique inn, creative enclave, or vineyard estate. As the current owners reflect on its history, they believe with its panoramic views, acreage, and lakefront that the best chapter is still to come.
