About this property
La Bella Vita: Spectacular Cayuga Lake Sunsets!
Located just north of Aurora on Cayuga Lakes east side you'll find La Bella Vita. This truly remarkable lake home is located right by the water's edge. This luxury home is the quintessential Finger Lakes choice for upscale traveling and family togetherness.
Inside, windows and doors allow for lake views from each angle of the house. Rain or shine, sun up until sun down, the views from inside allow you to enjoy the beauty of Cayuga Lake all day long.
Perfect blends of neutral colors splash throughout the great room. A wet bar tucked between the great room and dining area provides the perfect place for your new Finger Lakes beer and wine to be on display.
Tucked just around the corner of this open floor plan is a picture-perfect kitchen. White and grey custom cabinetry is accented with beautiful granite counter tops. Be sure to make time for a visit at a local roadside stand for some fresh Finger Lakes produce. A breakfast nook offers the perfect space to happily gather with friends and family while the chef of your group prepares your favorite meals.
A formal dining table offers an expansive wooden dining table-perfect for family style, sit-down meals.
Throughout this large home, five bedrooms are yours to choose from. Upstairs or down, each bedroom provides a relaxing setting for your time away from home.
The lower level of La Bella Vita offers a cozy retreat, elegant gas fireplace and entrance to the lakeside yard. A second kitchen makes entertaining a breeze while spending time at the lake front.
While the inside of La Bella Vita offers numerous luxury amenities, designed to ensure your comfort, it is outside where you will discover why so many people love Cayuga Lake! The plush yard leads you to your private dock where you will spend hot summer days swimming and splashing! After experiencing days of outdoor fun and adventure, come home to a dip in the lake or bring the marshmallows for nights spent around the outdoor fire pit.
Whether you're coming for a wedding at the Aurora Inn, wine tasting at award-winning Heart & Hands Wine Company, exploring the natural gorges and waterfalls of Ithaca, or spending the day shopping at Mackenzie Childs, you can't beat this ideal location. Call us to book your Finger Lakes vacation!
