Tucked into the foothills of the Adirondacks, this beautifully maintained log home offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern convenience — just minutes from Lake George and Saratoga Springs.

Bring your farm animals — the two-stall barn and fenced paddock are ready for them — and live off the land with ample space for gardens and homesteading.
An enclosed porch overlooks your own peaceful forest, offering the ideal spot to relax and unwind.
Inside, you'll find a spacious living area with wide-plank wood floors, a cozy wood stove, and a striking open staircase leading to a charming catwalk balcony. The first-floor primary bedroom is conveniently located next to a full bathroom and laundry room.

A two-car attached garage and a one-car detached garage
