2264-2266 Lake Shore Road

Essex, NY 12936

Blended opportunity with this residential and commercial offering in the historic hamlet of Essex, NY. The property is now being offered to include: the Cleland House, circa 1820, with its five bedrooms and four bathrooms, beautifully restored to preserve its historic character while thoughtfully integrating modern comforts; and the commercial waterfront, consisting of 360 feet of shoreline, a 3.2-acre underwater grant, and an extensive concrete dock system. This property is currently on two separate deeds. Combine the waterfront and the home for your own private use, or use the house as a private residence while renting out the waterfront dock space, which is currently zoned commercial. Alternatively, explore combining the house and waterfront to create a commercial operation with waterfront access. Once part of a larger marina, the large concrete docking system can accommodate up to 30 boats. The docks are being sold as-is and have not been actively rented out for many years. Many of the updates to the house include chef's kitchen includes a Wolf gas stove, Miele wall oven and microwave, Sub-Zero refrigerator, under-counter beverage refrigerator, stainless steel countertops, and custom lighting. The first-floor primary bedroom with ensuite bath with soaking tub and custom tiled shower, as well as a spacious walk-in closet with custom built-ins and a laundry area with washer and dryer. Upstairs includes a large lake-facing bedroom with ensuite full bath plus three additional bedrooms, large living room and additional full bath and laundry. The ready to be finished walk-out basement offers flexible use and opportunity to create more living space. The home is close to Lake Placid for hiking and skiing, four hours to Boston, 2.5 hours to Albany, and just 90 miles to Montreal, Canada.
