Go back to a time when a seasonal lake house in the Adirondacks was the ultimate luxury. Largely recovered from WW2, some Americans in the late fifties were lucky enough to escape for the summer and hide deep in the St. Regis Wilderness Area, with no neighbors, or worries, just family, picnics and swimming.
Offered for the first time since those tumultuous years, this vintage seasonal lake house is set amongst five maturely wooded acres overlooking three hundred feet of gradual sandy waterfront lovingly maintained by one family. Enjoy the fruits of their labor and care over a half century on a lake where very few camps ever become available.
Anchored by a massive vaulted great room with traditional beams, large picture windows overlook western views across the lake and a large deck overlooking the forested site. There is a master suite, four additional bedrooms and three bathrooms.
The gradual sandy shoreline is perfect for children and swimming. Enjoy jumping off the dock, which is large enough for several boats and sun bathing. This 1.5-mile lake is noted for its lack of use, great water quality and a quiet exclusive nature.
Motorboats are permitted, however the only boat launch on the lake is private, considerably limiting the number of boats. The lake is great for small sailboats, trout fishing, and paddling. Drop your canoe and explore the St. Regis Wilderness canoe area, the only area of its kind within The Park.
Only five miles from the Adirondack Regional Airport and 20 minutes from Saranac Lake.
