UPPER LEVEL:

The Saranac blends farmhouse character with the warmth and durability needed for mountain living. Board-and-batten siding, hand-hewn timber accents, covered porches, and a practical, welcoming layout give the home a refined rustic quality that feels especially at home in the Adirondacks.

The main level centers around an open eat-in kitchen and living room, creating an easy setting for everyday life and entertaining. A vaulted cathedral ceiling and custom stone fireplace give the living area a strong architectural focal point, while the nearby pantry and laundry area add practical convenience.

A private primary suite is also located on the main level, making the home well suited to long-term living and aging in place. The suite includes a walk-in closet, en-suite bath with a double vanity and walk-in shower, and direct access to a covered porch.

Upstairs, two guest bedrooms, a full bath, a flexible loft, and generous storage provide comfortable accommodations for family and friends. The loft can be adapted as a home office, reading area, workout space, or additional sitting room.
