Description

Set on six wooded acres with direct access to State Land on three sides, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath cabin offers rare proximity to Whiteface Mountain—just six miles away—and some of the best riverfront in the Adirondack Park. Across River Road, two acres of the parcel extend to the banks of the notable West Branch of the Ausable River. A short trail leads to a private trout pool with deep, clear water for world class fishing and an island with sandy shoreline and truly exceptional views of Whiteface....Set on six wooded acres with direct access to State Land on three sides, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath cabin offers rare proximity to Whiteface Mountain—just six miles away—and some of the best riverfront in the Adirondack Park. Across River Road, two acres of the parcel extend to the banks of the notable West Branch of the Ausable River. A short trail leads to a private trout pool with deep, clear water for world class fishing and an island with sandy shoreline and truly exceptional views of Whiteface. Swim, birdwatch, or simply enjoy the solitude—this stretch of river is a standout. There's also room to build a lean-to or seating area to make the most of the setting. The 1,400 sq ft home sits elevated and private, surrounded by forest. A spacious upper deck provides great outdoor living, while inside, the cabin features warm pine finishes, a new freestanding woodstove, and a galley kitchen with gas range. A two-stall oversized detached garage with Level 2 EV Charger and whole-house generator add function and flexibility. Driveway recently top-dressed. Bordering the Sentinel Range and surrounded by outdoor opportunity—hiking, biking, skiing, and more—this is an ideal basecamp just minutes to Lake Placid or Whiteface Mountain.
