Nestled amidst the serene beauty of Wilmington, this captivating 3-bedroom home offers an extraordinary living experience that's as cozy as it is inspiring. With its warm, inviting interiors and stunning natural surroundings, this is the perfect retreat for those seeking peace, comfort, and adventure.
The alluring cottage features large windows that wrap around the back of the house to let in natural light year-round and a spacious living room with a cathedral ceiling and wood-burning stove. The kitchen is custom built out of Pennsylvania poplar and features maple wood butcher block counter tops, and an integrated Fisher-Paykel drawer dishwasher.
The main floor has two bedrooms with natural wood beam ceilings. Upstairs you will find a large landing ideal for an office. The primary bedroom is spacious with windows that open to towering pine and cedar trees. Natural wood finishes and slate tile entryways add rustic elegance.
Outside, a brick walkway leads from the gravel driveway to the front door. The sprawling backyard features a terraced herb and perennial garden and a sitting area inside a small grove of trees. An 8x12 Adirondack Storage Barn shed provides extra storage.
The location is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts and is a three-minute drive to Whiteface Mountain, the northeast's premier alpine ski resort. The bike lane on Springfield Road will take you to the extensive mountain biking trail network maintained by BETA, or to the many parks in town. This quiet retreat is also within walking distance to downtown Wilmington and the world-famous West Branch of the Ausable River offering legendary fly fishing.
Located in the desirable Lake Placid School District, this home offers low taxes and easy access to all that the Adirondacks have to offer. If you're dreaming of a peaceful retreat where you can unwind and recharge, or a full-time residence as your basecamp to live, work and play, this charming home is the perfect place to call your own.
