The Exclusive Waterfront Property Adirondack Realtors Have Listed Are Unique Opportunities

By Brian Murphy


The Adirondack region of New York includes an expanse of protected natural area that is one of the largest in the country. The region itself covers in excess of six million acres. Upstate New York is home to some of the finest skiing, entertainment, and dining found anywhere in the world. If you are in the market for luxury real estate here, you need to tour the waterfront property Adirondack Realtors have listed.

Lake Placid is known for its magnificent views, and there are usually a number of exclusive camps for sale. One such camp, that has been on the market, has nine bedrooms, and nine and a half baths. It offers four full acres of privacy, and one of the best boathouses on Lake Placid. There is almost ten thousand square feet of living space spread over three primary structures, the main camp, a dining house, and the boathouse.

Another residence on Lake Placid, originally built at the turn of the twentieth century, and listed at over eight million, is the epitome of rustic elegance. The main house has six bedrooms and over four thousand square feet. This home was lovingly restored and winterized just a decade ago with the owners paying careful attention to its structural and historical integrity. A two bedroom guest cottage is located on the three acre 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.

If you are a music lover and a history buff, you will be enchanted with a camp once owned by Victor Herbert, the legendary composer. At a reduced price of four million dollars, it includes an impressive cobblestone fireplace, cathedral ceiling kitchen, and six bedrooms. It was designed for Herbert by the renowned architect, William Coulter.

From the mountains to the pristine lakes, the Adirondack region is truly a magical place. Nature lovers will find no better spot. Owning a luxury camp on Lake Placid is an added bonus.
