The units have all been thoughtfully renovated since 2017, providing modern, attractive living spaces that appeal to quality tenants and support higher rents in this tight rental market. Recent major upgrades are a new roof installed in 2024. The exterior was painted in 2025. Saranac Lake offers a rare blend of small-town charm, vibrant downtown culture, and endless outdoor recreation. Residents and tenants enjoy easy access to hiking, paddling on the Saranac Chain of Lakes, the Adirondack Rail Trail, arts festivals, local shops, restaurants, and the year-round appeal of the High Peaks region (just minutes from Lake Placid). Strong demand for both long-term rentals and short-term stays makes this a versatile asset in a location known for its natural beauty and quality of life. Don't miss this chance to own a solid, income-generating multifamily property with recent updates in one of the Adirondacks' most appealing villages.
