Briar Patch- the perfect house on a hill

Beautiful 3 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom house on a hill built in 1897. Just 20 minutes from Gore mountain, 1 mile from lake access, and close to some of the best hiking around. Escape all that is busy and loud in your every day life for the exact opposite. End your day in the Adirondacks with a drink or cup of tea on the screened in porch, around the fire pit, or in the cozy living room... maybe even using the telescope to see the stars. Large driveway fits multiple cars. TV with HDMI plugs and DVD player (bring your own device to plug in and enjoy). Cozy cottage feel
