This is our dream home. We're 77 and ready to pass it on to someone who will love this all wood/no sheetrock home. It is in the woods, walking distance to the water''s edge of Lake George, yet in its own little private oasis with ample privacy and off of the deck facing east and south, is forever wild and no other homes will ever be built there. Access to the main floor of the home is available off of the deck or through the stairs in the garage. The home is filled with natural light with dozens of windows and skylights illuminating nearly every room. The setting is so private, it doesn't require window treatments......enjoy the natural light by day (also saving electricity) and the glow of the stars and moon by night. Beautiful birch floors run throughout the open floor plan of the main living area in kitchen and knotty pine walls offer an elegant and warm rusticity. Spacious built-in window seats provide added seating and storage and are a terrific place for plants or pets to sunbath and enjoy the outdoors from within. A partial wrap around deck has both sun and shade to enjoy in balmy weather, three seasons out of the year. The kitchen has a bumped-out window over the sink providing views of the woods and sunlight. A perfect location for easy access for potted herbs or just decorative plants and flowers. The counter is large enough for parties or to enjoy a jigsaw puzzle! The master bedroom is generous in size and has its own private balcony and a walk-in closet. There is a 14x24 storage shed to the north of the home for all your lawn and garden tools and lake toys. There is plenty of storage for snowmobiles, skis, canoes, kayaks, and whatever other toys we enjoy in the north country! The roof was replaced in 2008 with 30 year shingles, there is a generator in the basement and it's partially plumbed for an additional bathroom. A wood stove is also in the basement with an exterior entrance from the backyard if you want to heat with wood in the winter for cost efficiency. R59 insulation is in the ceilings and there''s R46 in the walls for added snugness and savings. The hot water heater was replaced in 2018. This home is WALKING distance diwn a deeded rightaway to the private beach on Lake George where your 50' dock slip (one full side of the finger) is located. The end of the dock draws enough water for an inboard outboard vessel or a large IO cruiser, and then there is ample room for ski dos, jet skis, sunfish and other smaller boats toward the inside of the finger. The dock is located in protected Huddle Bay (home of the Algonquin restaurant) and a great location for calm water for skiing or wakeboarding and looks due north to the Sagamore and Northwest Bay.
