The little one-room house overlooks the exact spot drawn of the lake, birch trees and canoes that appears on a postcard made in 1913.The main house has two boat slips on the first floor, an extra windowed playroom (not heated) plus separate basement area with equipment like electric panel, A/C, etc. The reason the 1950's totally renovated and updated home is called Troutpoint is that the trout in Lake Placid, a trout-stocked lake, is known by local fishermen to like the spot! Troutpoint is a few homes away from where Kate Smith also lived and wrote and sang her iconic American songs. It is a world where the past is present. It is a magical world, a respite from reality where rainbows, dreams, and imagination merge. Close to town but far away.....This is boat access only property as the house is situated on Buck Island, one of three islands in the middle of Lake Placid. Buck Island is the closest island to the mainland marina and the house is on the southern tip of the island, which makes for a short (just minutes), direct boat ride to a marina in town. The house has two boat slips and also a floating dock. Fall Foliage Photos by Carolyn McGraw Walker.
