A Waterfront Property Adirondack Realtors Are Showing Could Be Yours

By Brian Murphy


The Adirondack region covers more than six million acres, and includes one of the largest protected natural areas in the country. It is home to some of New York's best skiing, dining, and entertainment in the world. For those who enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle there can be no better place to own a primary or secondary home. If you love this region of the country, are looking for property, and have unlimited funds, a waterfront property Adirondack Realtors have listed could be a perfect fit for you.

For those who love the idea of owning a camp on Lake Placid, with its magnificent, scenic views, there has been a nine bedroom, nine and a half bath estate sitting on four secluded acres on the market for a little over eight and a half million dollars. The nearly ten thousand square feet of living area is divided into a main camp, dining house, and one of the most exceptional boat houses on the lake.

If you are a lover of rustic charm, a camp built just after the turn of the twentieth century might interest you. It boasts an excess of four thousand square feet and six bedrooms. Almost ten years ago, the owners made the decision to carefully renovate and winterize the main residence. Maintaining its historical and structural integrity was paramount throughout the process. There is a two bedroom guest residence on its grounds.

Those interested in complete seclusion and stewarding a nature preserve, may be able to tour a hundred plus acre tract along the Ausable West Branch. It includes recreational trails, open meadows, and a swimming pond. The property is home to a vast array of nesting warblers. The residence was built with maximum energy efficiency in mind. This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity.

A home filled with rustic touches like cedar ceilings, peeled log beams, reclaimed pine flooring, and an impressive Colorado cut stone fireplace is the perfect vacation getaway. It is located on Brewster Peninsula, overlooking Lake Placid. In addition to the main lodge, there is a two level boathouse with covered porch and great room on the second floor.

There may be an opportunity for a large family looking for a family compound to find the perfect spot on Lake Placid. A five acre tract with a thirteen thousand square foot main house was available recently. It includes a gym, elevator, central air, indoor pool, and a chef's kitchen. There is also a guest cottage on the grounds and a boathouse with spacious living area.

A truly unique property, located on Lake Placid's south shore, was recently on the market for just over four million. It was once the home of legendary composer, Victor Herbert. This amazing camp boasts six bedrooms, a massive cobblestone fireplace, and cathedral ceiling kitchen.

The Adirondacks provide some of the best scenery in the country. If you love mountains, lakes, unparalleled skiing and boating this is the place for you. These luxurious homes are just waiting for the right owners.
