Home For Sale

Set on more than 12 acres in a quiet country setting, this classic 1880s farmhouse offers over 2,000 square feet of living space with a balance of Adirondack charm and meaningful updates. A new metal roof with owned solar panels, freshly painted exterior, and wrap-around covered porch reflect the care and investment this home has received. Inside, bay windows in the kitchen and primary bedroom bring in beautiful natural light, while fiber internet and reliable cell service make remote work easy and practical. A detached three-bay garage with electricity and loft storage adds excellent utility, and a new back door was installed in 2024. The property includes a fire pit, open space to enjoy, and a growing orchard with newly planted apple, pear, blackberry, raspberry, and blueberry plants. Several useful personal property items may also convey, including newer kitchen appliances and select equipment. Conveniently located just two miles from Interstate 87, with easy access to Wadhams, Elizabethtown, and the Westport boat launch on Lake Champlain, plus an easy drive to Lake Placid and Plattsburgh. The acreage may offer future subdivision potential, with the possibility of creating up to two additional lots, subject to town approvals.
