A piece of Olympic history nestled in the Adirondacks. Built for the 1980 Winter Olympics, this authentic chalet is tucked beneath the trees in Wilmington's desirable Indian Rock neighborhood -- warm, inviting, and full of character.
Offering just under 2,000 sq ft of living space, the home features 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a flexible loft space perfect for extra sleeping, a home office, or a quiet retreat. The main living area showcases vaulted wood ceilings, exposed beams, skylights, a cozy wood stove with stone surround, and an open kitchen, dining, and living layout that captures the classic chalet feel.
The finished lower level extends the living space with a den/library that easily serves as a third bedroom, a laundry/workshop area, and walk-out access to the outdoors.
Outside, an expansive wraparound deck, mature trees, a landscaped path, and a peaceful wooded setting set the scene -- all just minutes from Whiteface Mountain, hiking, biking, fishing, and Lake Placid.
Located within the Lake Placid School District.
