Portaferry Lake is located on the western edge of the Adirondack Park. The lake is approximately 90 acres in size with a depth approaching 100 feet at the center. The site of a Scout Camp from 1947 to 2006, there are still several of the original buildings with "The Office" located on this subject property and converted to a small cottage with a bedroom, bath and kitchen area. The residence was lovingly constructed by the current owner in 2015 with quality and amenities that will impress. The home is close to the water and captures serene views year-round. As you walk inside, the warmth and Adirondack-appropriate feel of the natural woodwork is striking. The soaring cathedral ceiling, wood burning fireplace and inviting adjacent deck will make you not want to leave. A beautiful kitchen with granite countertops and adjacent dining area lead you towards the revered screened porch. The primary bedroom suite is upscale and expansive. The loft holds two sleeping areas, a bath and overlooks the Great Room and lake beyond. The finished lower level is not included in the posted square footage and flexible for use, including a 4th bedroom. The waterfront is tranquil, soothing and inviting.
