Residential Land with Home for Sale in Long Lake, New York

The home of a beloved Long Lake guideboat builder, recently passed, is for sale with shop and eight acres. The view from the porch is outstanding, both wide and far, looking down at the waters of Long Lake and out at Mt Sabattis, Burnt Mountain, and Fishing Brook Mountain. Work is needed to bring the house exterior up to passable, to dry out the moist basement, to correct frost push on a basement wall, and no doubt fix some other details around the house. However, the place seems pretty sound overall and offers a lot of living space, with five bedrooms, a small sleeping room, two baths, a kitchen, a large panty room, a living room, and an unfinished loft with the potential for fantastic views if you see how to use it. The sitting room and the porch are the main event; they are the view spaces where anyone would spend their time. The shop itself is a feature worth mention - a garage below, the boat shop itself on the middle story, and a large storage attic above, accessed from the exterior. The land included is actually three separate lots, and the whole property is designated hamlet by the APA, so it can be re-divided as needed; at least several acres share the view. This may not be turn-key real estate, but the investment needed is more than worth it. This house repaired, on this land, is going to yield something special enough to be described as generational. Come see all the potential this property has to offer and if this might be where you want to spend your time in Long Lake. (Home inspection report and video link available on request.)
