Description
We would like to welcome you to picturesque Brant Lake, NY and our lovingly restored vacation home. Imagine rounding the bend on a tree lined Adirondack road and seemingly driving into the perfect postcard photo. The first sight you see is water pouring over a small dam under a flower lined pedestrian bridge. Past the dam you see a fountain in the center of a pond surrounded by a small village with old houses, church steeples, a lifeguard stand on a small beach and a historic stone library built out into the water. This is the Mill Pond area of Brant Lake. Driving around the first corner, just steps from Mill Pond, you see the wraparound porch, picket fence, dormers and gables of a vintage Adirondack home so beautiful you can’t help but want to stop and just sit on one of the rocking chairs lining the front porch. As you get closer and are admiring the home’s original stained glass windows you see the house number on the post and realize this is the house where you will be spending your vacation.Built in 1826 this was the home of a prominent local businessman. Passed down through generations of the same family. We were able purchase the home from them in 2022 to become our families vacation home, hopefully for generations to come. After a full year of hard work this home has been restored to its former glory. The work was done with the goal of keeping the original historic feel of the home, but with all the modern amenities of today’s homes. Imagine walking across 200 year old wide plank floors, past an antique fainting couch, and laying down on a brand new king size bed all while the central air conditioning keeps you cool on a hot summer day.Homes features:-Sleeps 105 bedrooms1 king size bed, upstairs, with private bathroom1 queen, upstairs2 full, upstairs1 queen, first floor, perfect for those who struggle with stairs3 Full bathrooms1 downstairs with claw foot tub and shower stall1 upstairs with double sink and separate toilet and shower area1 master bath with second door to allow others to use if need beFully equipped kitchen with new appliances and utensilsButlers pantry with coffee station and beer fridgeLarge living room with sectional couch and pool tableDining room and a breakfast table in kitchenCentral heat and air conditioningWifi and good cell service (with Verizon I know)Work from home if you must, several seating areasLarge covered front porch with plenty of seatingBack yard pavilion with grill and table that seats 10Large outdoor fireplace surrounded by Adirondack chairsFenced in backyard with a dog door leading from the houseLarge parking areaStorage room with beach chairs, yard games, etc. you are welcome to useHouse sits just a couple hundred yards from small public beachWhat to do during your stay?Mill Pond is just 2 miles from I-87, exit 25.
