Overview
Stepping through the front door of this Historic Victorian home is like stepping back in time. It was operated from 1931 to 1957 as a ”Cure Cottage” when people came to Saranac Lake seeking ”the cure.”
This is a home to fall in love with—and to make your own with finishing touches. The interior showcases original handcrafted woodwork, a classic stone fireplace (with no mess propane), leaded-glass built-in bookcases, and sunny rooms with tall windows that fill the home with natural light. A bright kitchen with a breakfast nook and a formal dining room make it ideal for family gatherings and entertaining.
The second floor has three bedrooms, a gorgeous new bath and laundry area.
The entire third floor serves as a private main suite, play area, or home office, offering flexibility for modern living. Outside, you’ll find a detached garage, a lovely private yard for gardening or children’s play, and a location just minutes from downtown Saranac Lake, the Bandshell for summer concerts, the Farmer’s Market on weekends and the Thursday night Art Walks on Main St. Lake Flower, Moody Pond, easy access to Baker Mountain and our wonderful new bike trail are all close by.
Rich in history, warmth, and Adirondack character, this exceptional home invites you to continue its story.
