Serenity Bay is a timeless Adirondack retreat rich with history and character. The well-appointed 3-season home welcomes you with panoramic views of the Fulton Chain, a stunning granite fireplace handcrafted in the early 1930s, and beautifully preserved original woodwork throughout the first floor. Blending authentic camp charm with modern comfort, the home also features renovated second-floor living space, a modern kitchen with some newer appliances, high-speed internet, a newer roof, 5 spacious bedrooms, comfortable furnishings, and a traditional Adirondack sleeping porch.
Set on 237' of sandy-bottom waterfront on Fourth Lake, this truly unique property features a private island connected by a newly constructed bridge anchored into bedrock. Enjoy sandy-bottom swimming, excellent fishing, limited boat traffic, a lakeside stone patio with fire pit, and a two-bay boathouse. Wild blueberries grow on Blueberry Island, while raspberries and blackberries can be found throughout the property. Under Adirondack night skies, Serenity Bay offers exceptional stargazing and frequent wildlife sightings. A rare opportunity to experience the peaceful beauty and timeless atmosphere of classic Adirondack lake living.
