Beachfront house, right on the water on Long Lake — with one of the biggest sandy beaches you'll find! This special property feels wonderfully private, thanks to the sale including a second undeveloped beachfront lot, giving you twice the beach and just one neighbor instead of two. The deck sits just steps from the shoreline, overlooking an expansive sandy beach that's perfect for swimming, sunbathing, paddling, or just relaxing with your toes in the sand. Inside, the home is pleasantly simple and full of Adirondack charm: wood floors, a functional kitchen, a cozy family room with a wood stove, one modest bedroom, and one larger one. Many buyers will see the value in the grandfathered square footage and want to make significant updates to maximize this rare location — but if you prefer to enjoy it mostly as it is, the known TLC needs include replacing the roof and refreshing the exterior with stain or paint. Importantly, the seller will provide a credit at closing equal to the full fixed-price quote from a reputable local contractor for installing a brand new septic system — so the buyer won't have to pay out of pocket for it. Engineering plans will be in hand, making this a straightforward upgrade. Enjoy the rare privacy, the unbeatable views, and all the fun that comes with a huge sandy beach on Long Lake — swimming, paddling, fishing, boating, or just soaking up the peace and quiet of the Adirondacks from your very own beach house.
