This is not just a property — it’s a piece of Connestee Falls history and includes 3 seperate building lots on the water. Sitting on one of the most desirable, level lakefront lots on Wanteska, this was among the first lots and homes built on the lake. Once filled with warmth and craftsmanship, she has sadly fallen into disrepair — but the bones, the setting, and the possibilities remain extraordinary. The structure currently offers: 2 bedrooms 3 baths Large Private Study/Studio/family room or MIL Efficiency Apartment potential Laundry room Vaulted, beamed ceilings in the living room Massive wood-burning stone fireplace Southeast-facing orientation with panoramic lake views and glorious natural light The layout and floor plan are truly fantastic and still shine through, even now. Main living areas capture breathtaking water views, and the soaring ceilings and fireplace anchor what was once a spectacular gathering space. Let’s be clear: This is not a cosmetic fixer-upper. This is a full-scale renovation or tear-down opportunity. The home currently has significant interior damage, including a ceiling collapse in one of the bedrooms. It will require a serious rehab by experienced professionals — or could make way for a stunning new custom lakefront build. But for the right visionary buyer, builder, or investor… this property is something special. The lot itself is exceptional: Level, spacious, and incredibly private — with two adjacent lots also available for purchase, creating the potential for an expansive lakefront estate rarely found anywhere. Southeast exposure delivers spectacular light and sunrises. Privacy and serenity are unmatched. And the history here is palpable, even in it’s current state, the charm can still be felt within the walls. Can she be saved? Perhaps. Or perhaps it’s time for a new chapter. Either way, opportunities like this in Connestee are rare and lakefront on a level lot? Unheard of. Bring your vision. Bring your builder. Bring your imagination. Because properties with this setting, this privacy, and this legacy don’t come along often.
