This property is being offered in connection with the estate at 24922 NYS Route 12 and is ideally suited for purchase as part of the complete estate package. Together, the properties create an exceptional Northern New York compound combining multiple residences, private ponds, extensive acreage, water rights, recreational opportunities, and the privacy of a much larger estate. This beautifully maintained 2024 manufactured home provides an opportunity to own approximately five acres of private land with its own pond and the same remarkable natural setting that defines the larger estate. Acquired together with 24922 NYS Route 12, however, the two properties offer an entirely different level of flexibility and potential. Set among mature trees and open land, this home delivers modern finishes and comfortable living in a peaceful country setting. The property includes water rights, abundant wildlife, outdoor recreation opportunities, and a private pond directly behind the home. One of the home's most appealing features is the view from the dining area, where the pond becomes a natural extension of the living space. Whether enjoying breakfast, or watching wildlife, the water provides a beautiful backdrop throughout the seasons. Inside, the home features a bright open-concept design that brings the kitchen, dining, and living areas together. The kitchen offers generous counter space and a large center island, creating a natural gathering point while maintaining an easy connection to the living room. The living area features a fireplace, adding warmth to the home's modern interior. Outside, the land provide room to explore and enjoy the property. The private pond creates opportunities for fishing, kayaking, wildlife watching, or simply relaxing beside the water. Deer, turkey, waterfowl, and other wildlife are part of the surrounding landscape, reinforcing the property's true outdoor-living character. And despite the private setting, the property remains conveniently located just minutes from downtown Watertown, including schools, medical facilities, shopping, dining, and other everyday amenities.

A Private Waterfront Estate Where Nature Becomes Your Everyday Turn off NY-12 and follow a winding private drive beneath a canopy of mature trees. For a minute, the outside world fades away. That’s until the landscape opens and the full character of this remarkable property comes into view. Located just minutes from downtown Watertown, this is more than a home. It is a private outdoor retreat, a family compound, and an exceptional opportunity to own a property built around one of its most unique assets: a spring-fed, approximately 30-foot-deep aquifer with year-round water. The water is stocked with eight species of fish creating a private setting for fishing, kayaking, wildlife watching, and simply enjoying the outdoors. Deer, turkey, waterfowl, and abundant wildlife are part of the landscape, while mature forest, open acreage, and natural view corridors create a sense of space and seclusion rarely found this close to town. At the center of the estate is a custom-built 2017 home, privately positioned on just under five acres and complemented by a functional barn with horse stalls. Inside, the lower level provides an impressive private living area, including a spacious primary suite with a custom-tiled bath and sliding glass doors opening toward the water views. Additional bedrooms and a second living area provide flexibility for guests, family members, or dedicated private spaces. Central air conditioning provides year-round comfort. Upstairs, the home truly comes to life. A thoughtfully designed custom kitchen offers abundant counter space, generous storage, and a striking custom island that anchors the open-concept living area. Walls of natural light create an inviting atmosphere for both everyday living and entertaining. And then there is the second residence. Listed separately or purchased together at an increased cost. A 2024 manufactured home sits separately on its own private pond, offering 3 beds, 2 baths and is move-in ready. Whether used as an income-producing rental or guest residence, it adds an entirely different dimension to the property. Don't miss out on an opportunity of a lifetime.

The rear building provides even more potential with a large 4 car garage below and approximately 2,400 square feet above that was designed as a 2 bedroom, 2 bath residence with a widow's peak. Drywall and electrical wiring are complete, but the space remains unfinished, allowing the next owner to create a guest house, owner’s quarters, rental, office or additional event space. Previously operated as a restaurant, this property could continue as a funeral home or be transformed into a wedding venue, event center, banquet facility, professional office complex or other commercial use. With multiple buildings, incredible parking capacity, flexible interior space and easy access to Route 81, this is a rare opportunity for an entrepreneur, investor or business owner seeking a truly adaptable property.
