The manor has had many different uses over the years, from 1952 until 1998 it was the Carmelite Monastery, and is now The Franklin Manor Bed and Breakfast. Whether used as a B & B, a training facility or as your personal residence with plenty of room for an extended family, you'll be getting a truly special property. The home features fourteen bedrooms, eight full and two half baths. The main floor has a parlor, formal dining room, sitting room and a library. From the well appointed chefs kitchen you can access the owners quarters.

The manor is within walking distance to downtown Saranac Lake and eight miles to downtown Lake Placid and is being sold furnished.
