Adirondack log cabin on acreage with a barn, 2 garages, a large shed, and stunning views from the top of the property. The driveway leads across a beautiful lawn past the barn and first garage and up through the woods to the house. The cabin provides an uncompromised level of privacy with no neighbor in sight, nestled among a stand of mature maple and white pine trees. The open-concept floor plan features a great room with a cathedral ceiling. Exposed beams add character to the log cabin. The wood stove is framed by natural stone, which provides warmth and comfort when the weather sets in. The wood stove is capable of heating the cabin, but a forced air furnace in the basement is also in place. The kitchen includes a live edge thick-cut pine counter bar facing the living room. The butcher block countertops are functional and add to the character of the house. The first-floor bedroom and the bathroom complete the first floor. Upstairs is a large open loft bedroom suitable for a main bedroom or large guest room. The 3 season Adirondack room off the kitchen is the perfect place to curl up with a book or sit and visit. The walkout basement provides additional space to build a future bedroom and includes the washer/dryer and mechanical systems. The large wraparound deck gets plenty of sun and is the perfect place for a barbecue. Behind the house is the main 2-stall garage, which includes a lean-to on the side and the back for additional firewood storage and equipment. The barn in the front of the property provides ample room for storage and could be used for horses or other livestock. The property has a drilled well and septic system. The other 2 sheds on the property provide ample storage for vehicles, equipment, ATVs or snowmobiles. Behind the log cabin, the terrain is relatively flat, with a slight uphill grade until the mountain's base, where the grade gets much steeper. The total elevation gain is roughly 450’ to the top of the mountain. For those more adventurous, hike up to the top of the mountain and enjoy stunning views to the south and east. Several excellent locations are at the top of the mountain for the perfect campsite or place to build an Adirondack lean-to. The property contains a significant amount of mature timber, including white pine, maple, ash, hickory and red and white oak.
