845 Farleys Point Rd, Union Springs, NY 13160

First time on the market in over 140 years! This Finger Lakes retreat was known as "Hallocks Castle on the Lake", circa the 1890s, more recently known as Farleys Point Castle. As you enter this cottage, you are traveling back in time to a bygone era. Beautiful hardwoods of oak & chestnut, 9 ft ceilings on first-floor w/solid tall doors & original brass knobs. 4 bedrooms, some of which lead out to the covered open porches overlooking the sparkling waters of Cayuga Lake. Expansive views on all 3 sides of the waterfront lot. The third-floor turret porches closed off in the '70s, had stairs removed, and can be opened again. Located in the coveted and desirable Farleys Point community on the east side of Cayuga Lake, just south of Union Springs. Newer alum dock, rowboat and daysailer convey, furnishing negotiable. The cottage is on Leased land, owned by the Farley family descendants, the homeowners association maintains road, plowing & refuse pickup.

Purchase this for yourself, your children, and your next 5 generations to come! Make this your family treasure and legacy.
