Nestled in the heart of the Adirondacks, this stunning retreat offers the perfect escape for outdoor enthusiasts, or anyone looking to decompress, relax and unwind. Conveniently located just 7 miles from Exit 26 of I-87 (The Northway), the property combines privacy with accessibility and includes public water service. Perfectly placed on a manageable yet private 1.2-acre lot, this home is ideal as a primary residence, vacation getaway, or a smart investment for those planning ahead for retirement. The lower level features a finished family room with a cozy pellet stove, half bath, laundry area, workshop space, and generous garage space. On the main level, you'll find a thoughtfully designed layout with a private bedroom tucked away from the three upper-level bedrooms, a full bath, and an open dining/living area centered around a beautiful stone fireplace with pellet stove insert. The modern kitchen is just steps to a spacious upper deck--perfect for entertaining. One of the home's standout features is the expansive screened porch, complete with lighting, two ceiling fans, and wiring for a future hot tub. From here, enjoy the peaceful sounds of nearby Minerva Stream. The upper level offers three additional bedrooms, which include a rear bedroom with double closets and a walk-in closet and two front bedrooms with ceiling fan/lights, along with a full bathroom. Outside, a full-length rear deck overlooks the backyard, and a hardwired automatic generator provides peace of mind year-round. Garden enthusiasts will appreciate the fenced-in area with raised beds. Ideally located for recreation, you'll be just minutes from hiking trails, lakes, and beaches--approximately 8 miles to Gore Mountain, 5+- miles to Donnelly Beach, and within 30 minutes of Schroon Lake.
