Description
Nestled at the bottom of Willsboro Bay on the Adirondack Gold Coast, where the mountains meet the lake, this home feels perfectly private, yet provides convenient access to Burlington, Plattsburgh, & Lake Placid.200+ feet of waterfront shoreline creates the perfect setting for water activities such as paddleboarding, kayaking or a relaxing family flotilla. A 60 ft dock and convenient location to the public boat launch expands swimming, fishing and boating possibilities.On sunny days, enjoy games on the expansive lawn or in the vintage paddle tennis court, which also features a basketball hoop. On rainy afternoons, the home is well appointed with board games puzzles, & cozy nooks designed for curling up with a good book.This home has all the amenities necessary for preparing meals together and enjoying unplugged family time. The large deck and sunroom are perfect spaces for gathering together. The master bedroom, sleeping porch, & bunk room style attic create the feeling of privacy when you need your own space.This home has been lovingly renovated with modern conveniences, such as 3 all-new bathrooms, while carefully maintaining vintage details like the 1950s retro-style kitchen and original 1920s field stone fireplace ( we hope to have it functioning in the future, but no indoor fires for now). Cable and internet access are available for checking the modern world, but you won/t really feel like it!At the end of the day, enjoy western views of Rattlesnake Mountain by the campfire, beautiful sunsets (Yes! Rare sunsets on the NY side of Lake Champlain), and starry nights chasing fireflies. You can even set your watch by the passing 11pm train which charmingly disappears into a tunnel across the bay. The boaters certainly know the legendary beauty of this spot, but you can have the privilege of enjoying it by land.1hr from Burlington10 minutes from the Essex Ferry Dock30 minutes to Lake Placid20 minutes to Ausable ChasmLocated within the Adirondack National Park
