About this home
Designed and built by architect Alfred H. Dal Pos as his own residence, The Dal Pos Retreat is a distinctive mid-century modern home set on approximately 2.25 acres along the west side of Skaneateles Lake. Just minutes from the village, the property feels remarkably private, with mature trees, a backyard creek, an in-ground pool and expansive views across the lake. The architecture is the story here. Walls of glass, vaulted ceilings and exposed beams frame the landscape, while a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace anchors the dramatic great room. Hardwood floors and an elevated wraparound deck reinforce the home's connection to its setting, capturing changing light, broad lake views and the west side's memorable sunsets. Original architectural blueprints remain with the property. Over 3,700 square feet unfolds across a split-level plan with five bedrooms and four full baths. The primary suite occupies the upper level, while four additional bedrooms are positioned below, several with lake views. A heated sunroom, second kitchen and walkout lower level add flexibility for guests, multi-generational living or a separate living arrangement, subject to applicable approvals. Outside, the acreage offers room to reimagine the property around its natural setting. The pool and patio create a focal point for summer, while the wooded grounds and creek provide a sense of seclusion in every season. Located within easy reach of Skaneateles Village, Carpenter Falls, area wineries and the wider Finger Lakes, the setting balances privacy with access to the region's destinations. The Dal Pos Retreat is an opportunity for a buyer with vision to restore and update an architect-designed home while preserving the qualities that make it distinctive: its mid-century lines, acreage, panoramic lake outlook and extraordinary relationship to the surrounding landscape....
