Set back from River Road on 1.73 wooded acres, 506 River Road is a thoughtfully improved, approximately 1,200-square-foot, three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath Adirondack home offering privacy, mountain views, and an elevated ridge setting just five miles from Main Street in Lake Placid. The main level is designed for easy everyday living, with an open floor plan and natural woodwork creating a warm, relaxed interior. The living room centers around a propane stove, while the updated kitchen and dining area flow naturally into the surrounding spaces. A large sliding glass door opens to the expansive deck, while double doors from the first-floor primary bedroom lead to a screened porch, extending the living areas outdoors and taking advantage of the ridge setting and mountain views. The finished walk-out lower level provides two additional bedrooms, a full bath, den, and flexible recreation space, with a covered lower patio directly outside. Major improvements include a new roof, deep drilled well with upgraded water treatment system, paved driveway, and updates to the septic leach lines. A 10-by-20-foot Amish-built shed provides valuable additional storage. Mature trees provide privacy, while the landscaped grounds, deck, screened porch, covered patio, and fire pit offer several ways to enjoy the property's open mountain views. Ductless cooling adds year-round comfort. The location also provides exceptional access to outdoor recreation. World-class trout fishing on the West Branch of the Ausable River is just steps from the foot of the driveway, while River Road is part of a popular road-cycling loop with easy access to the Ironman Lake Placid bike course. Nearby access to the Jackrabbit Trail connects to mountain biking at Craig Wood and Scott's Cobble, with the Lussi trails also easily reached from the property.
