Welcome to this historic cottage, located within a private lakefront community, “Greencrest-on-the-Lake”. Enjoy over 150 feet of waterfront property, complete with your own private beach for swimming and boating. Originally designed and built by Irving Price, co-creator of the Fisher Price Toy Company, as his family’s summer cottage, this home carries a rich and charming history. Over the years, neighbors have shared stories of how Mr. Price would test his new toys on Greencrest. Now offered for sale for the first time in 53 years, this is a truly special place to call home. The heart of the home is the great room, featuring the original floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and wall-to-wall windows that showcase glistening water views throughout the day. The compact kitchen has prepared intimate dinners for twelve, as well as lively gatherings of up to fifty guests over the years. The primary bedroom features French doors with full water views and an ensuite bath. There are two additional bedrooms plus a loft for play or sleeping space. Step out onto the covered porch and take in the ever-changing skyscape, as spectacular sunsets unfold across the lake. Walk along the beach or bike to Van Buren Point and Van Buren Bay or Lake Erie State Park. Just a few miles from the State University of New York and the town of Fredonia. Or take a short drive to the Chautauqua Institution, a summer resort for music, art, lectures and world-class entertainment. This home is located within the Fredonia Central School District.
