Overview
The Loon Lake Irish House – A Grand Adirondack Legacy. Step into a rare chapter of Adirondack history with the Loon Lake Irish House—a commanding 1905 Victorian estate in the storied hamlet of Loon Lake, NY. Nestled between the lake and Lookout Mountains, this iconic seasonal property is part of one of the last clusters of 1800s-era buildings in the region. More than an architectural gem, it offers access to the timeless lifestyle once savored by Theodore Roosevelt, Henry Ford, and the Vanderbilts, who vacationed in this very area. Deeded access to a private, spring-fed, three-mile lake offers crystal-clear water for swimming, paddling, or peaceful reflection in a secluded cove. Once a glamorous resort destination, Loon Lake is now a tranquil haven for those who treasure history, nature, and privacy. This majestic 9-bedroom, 8-bathroom estate boasts exquisite original details—natural woodwork, soaring ceilings, intricate moldings, and a stunning three-story curved cherry wood staircase. A stately fireplace, original brass room numbers, and heavy wood doors with period hardware evoke the home’s storied past. Recent updates, including a new roof and freshly painted exterior, ensure it’s move-in ready for seasonal enjoyment or short-term rental success. Spacious formal rooms and a flexible layout make the Irish House ideal as a private retreat, boutique inn, or event venue. A convenient rear loading dock supports catered events and retreats. The main-level primary suite adds accessibility, while upstairs bedrooms offer privacy for guests. The expansive lot is subdividable, with potential for a year-round cottage, garage, or caretaker’s home. Surrounded by forested mountain views and steps from the lake, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own an iconic piece of Adirondack history. Schedule your private tour today.
