DESCRIPTION
This is one of the most unusual houses in the Adirondack Park, built in 1992 as a one-of-a-kind structure using 11 foot Douglas Fir beams throughout. Walk out the front door to numerous cross country ski trails, hiking trails, mountain climbs, kayaking and canoeing lakes and ponds, recreational vehicle use areas - in short, all the activities the Adirondacks are famous for. Center Pond, John's Pond, Chimney Mountain, Clear Pond, Wilderness Lodge, Big Brook, Lake Abanakee, Indian Lake, and Blue Mountain, just to name a few, are all close by. Located in the center of the Adirondack Park, six miles outside the hamlet of Indian Lake, on rainy days one can visit the Adirondack museum in 15 minutes, Lake George shopping and dining in 45, or be at the Lake Placid/Saranac Lake Olympic sports venues in one hour. Downhill skiing at Gore Mountain is just 20 minutes away.

The two-story house has 1,356 square feet comprised of three bedrooms, an additional sleeping loft, one and a half bathrooms, a large open kitchen/dining/living space, lots of closet space, a small laundry room, and a 336 square foot unfinished deck over a carport. Much has been done with the landscaping including an old-fashioned rock wall and lots of perennial plantings. In addition, there are lots of wild blackberry, blueberry, and raspberry bushes and an apple tree on the slightly more than one acre lot. The property is located at the end of a tiny dead end cul-de-sac and no other houses are visible from the property. There is no road noise. One side of the house is solid glass panels interspersed between the Douglas Fir beams which makes the house a plant lover's delight.

There are three heat sources: passive solar, woodstove, and oil furnace. Floors are hardwood and real tile. Excellent water from community well. Property taxes in 2007-08 were $516.36 school and $637.67 town/county.

This property is uniquely capable of being either a year-round reasonably priced family residence six miles from schools, churches and stores, an easy to maintain second home, a dynamite income producing rental, or a combination. Use the home for yourself, family and friends, several weeks out of the year and rent it several weeks out of the year to pay for the entire year's mortgage.
