    What's special

    Two fireplacesPrivate wooded backyardAuthentic mid-century split-levelDetached two-car garageMore than an acreSolid wood cabinetryReal wood paneling
    Authentic mid-century split-level on more than an acre in the Village of Saranac Lake, with views of Mt. McKenzie and a private, wooded backyard -- a rare combination in town. Lovingly maintained and move-in ready, this home is filled with original details: real wood paneling, solid wood cabinetry, and two fireplaces, including a wood-burning fireplace in the main living area and a stone (propane-converted) fireplace in the finished lower-level rec room. Large windows and sliding doors bring in natural light and mountain views from the dining area, deck, and screened porch. The wooded lot offers exceptional privacy for a village property -- no visible neighbors from the backyard, just trees, sky, and mountains. For vehicles, hobbies, and gear, there are four garage bays total: an attached two-car garage with a woodstove, plus a detached two-car garage. All this within easy reach of downtown Saranac Lake, Lake Flower, and the 34 mile-long Adirondack Rail Trail, which stretches from Lake Placid to Tupper Lake -- perfect for walking, biking, paddling, or skiing/snowmobiling in Winter. North Country Community College, local shops, cafés, breweries, and restaurants are just minutes away, giving you village convenience alongside a private, natural retreat. Preserve the mid-century character, update for modern living, or blend both -- the quality construction, acreage, privacy, and mountain views are already here. A rare opportunity in the Village of Saranac Lake.
