People from around the world come to the western shores of NY State to enjoy our wine country of the Finger Lakes that has been compared to that of Nappa with the awards to match. The ski country of Bristol in the Finger Lakes and Holiday Valley. Those that visit our area are amazed at the scenery that we offer including leaf peepers in the fall and the amazing sunsets from the beaches of Shingleside (photos provided by seller) as you look across Lake Ontario to the far reaching shores of Cananda. If golf is your game, dozens of courses await you in the Rochester area including LPGA's Locust Hill and Lakeshore Country Club just minutes from Shingleside.

Shingleside is screened by a low fieldstone wall and wrought iron fence on the street side(Beach Avenue) with a circle concrete drive and granite curbing; heated garage with guest quarters and lush landscaping that completes the street side design.  Waterside on Lake Ontario is a fieldstone retaining wall and steps leading from the family/game room past a working waterfall to the expansive 150’ sandy beach that is protected by two concrete jetties extending out into Lake Ontario that are set to place a floating dock for summer usage.  Shinglesides exterior design is an interpretation of the Shingle and Colonial Revival styles while the interior is an interpretation of the Arts and Crafts style.

Placed on the National Historic Register in 1984, Shingleside is a unique, one-of-a-kind lakefront beach home in the Charlotte community and was designed for Stein as a summer residence by Claude Bragdon.


Shingleside is just a short stroll down the beach to the 39 acre Ontario Beach Park that is home to concerts, family outings, fireworks, boating, volleyball tournaments, a turn of the century carousel, the busy river enlet and frozen custard at Rochester's own Abbotts Custard. Whether taking a romantic stroll along its picturesque pier, riding the 1905 Dentzel menagerie carousel, or boating, Ontario Beach Park provides all that’s necessary for a perfect summer day at the beach.
