About This Home
As of June 2025Discover the charm of this unique Legacy Timber Frame home, where architectural character meets modern comfort. The soaring high ceilings and expansive big windows in every room flood the space with bright, natural light, creating an inviting and airy atmosphere. With views of the lake from both the front and the back of the house, and a beautiful wooded setting, it is Adirondack living at its best. In a prime location, walking distance to the Saranac Inn Golf Course, and steps away from the shared beach access, a buyer can walk across the street for a cool swim in Upper Saranac Lake. Sit on the back screened porch and relax in the privacy of your lovely wooded lot and enjoy warm summer evenings at the outdoor firepit. The large chef's kitchen has open shelving, sleek appliances, and live edge countertops, milled from the property. An enamel Jotul woodstove adds ambiance and comfort on cool Adirondack days. Built in cabinetry throughout the house, also built from wood that was milled from the property, make this a one of a kind home. Immaculate basement with brand new furnace and water heater, utility sink, refrigerator/freezer, new Miele washer and dryer, and a Guardian Generator add to this home's value. Additionally, the home boasts a detached garage, complete with a heated workshop perfect for hobbyists or professionals. The second floor of the garage presents a versatile space that could easily be finished as another work space, artist studio or quiet sanctuary. This year round Adirondack home offers a rare opportunity to live in the very private and beautiful Back Bay neighborhood.
