Timeless, 1880s farmhouse offers over 12 peaceful acres in the Adirondacks. The bright, open kitchen makes you feel immediately at home. It features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, automatic blinds and a cozy breakfast nook--perfect for morning coffee--while original hardwood floors throughout much of the home preserve its authentic character. A spacious dining room with a cozy pellet stove creates an inviting setting for gatherings, and the comfortable living room offers a relaxing retreat at the end of the day. Wrap-around front covered porch and paver patio off the back welcome you home and invite you to step out and explore your surrounding land. Large yard with greenhouse, playset and your own fire pit for those summer evenings that you never want to end! Your own growing orchard featuring apple, pear, blackberry, raspberry, and blueberry plantings. Additional acreage offers opportunity for livestock, pets or possible subdivision depending on your needs. Detached three-bay garage/barn with electricity and loft storage. Metal roof with owned solar panels, freshly painted exterior, a new back door (2024), and a refreshed gravel driveway. Fiber optic internet and reliable cell service ensures working from home or steaming your favorite show is seamless, making this property the perfect balance of rural lifestyle and modern living. Despite its serene country setting, the home is just two miles from Interstate 87, providing easy access Westport boat launch on Lake Champlain and an easy commute North or South. Less than a hour to Lake Placid and Plattsburgh.
