About This Home

As of October 2025

Nordic Chalet is a recently renovated retreat in the heart of the Adirondacks. This charming chalet-style home offers a peaceful wooded setting, set back from the road for added privacy. The home features a separate 3 season lounge and sauna building, a spacious primary bedroom with a desk and sitting area, and an open-concept main floor ideal for relaxing or entertaining.

Recent upgrades include new kitchen appliances, flooring, lighting, and ceiling fans, along with a custom live-edge kitchen counter, handcrafted twig railings, and a beautifully renovated bathroom featuring a custom French corner sliding shower enclosure and hexagon tile flooring. The home is being sold fully furnished with all-new decor, offering a turnkey opportunity.

Additional potential awaits in the walkout basement as well as a flexible basement garage for storage or expansion. A durable standing seam metal roof with gutters ensure low-maintenance living.

Enjoy all that Ausable Acres has to offer for just $75 per year, including access to miles of scenic walking and cross-country skiing trails, Ausable River entry points, Lake Eaton, and tennis/pickleball courts.
