About This Home
Wonderfully situated along one of Lake Placid's most sought after addresses, just a short walk from the Olympic Village and within walking distance of Lake Placid's marinas, this exceptionally maintained residence and guest cottage are nestled beneath a canopy of mature pine trees. Massive native stone columns provide a timeless foundation for this four bedroom home, thoughtfully designed with an open floor plan and a finished walkout lower level. Vaulted pine ceilings and a custom native stone fireplace create the warm Adirondack character buyers seek, while the covered wraparound porch offers the perfect setting for outdoor entertaining or relaxing on summer evenings. Meticulously maintained, the home features a durable metal roof, recently stained siding, and an exterior that requires virtually no work. The paved driveway leads to both the main residence and a beautifully renovated year round guest cottage complete with a one car garage. Currently used as a long term rental, the cottage offers excellent flexibility as an income producing property, guest accommodations, or a private retreat. Being offered fully furnished, this turnkey property is ready to enjoy immediately. Additional features include a game room, hot tub, three and one half baths, and an exceptional location that places boating, dining, shopping, hiking, skiing, and all of Lake Placid's year round attractions just minutes from your doorstep.
