### Agent Description
Cottage in the Forest - Your Private Woodland Retreat. Escape to the peace & beauty of nature with this charming 2-bedroom, 2.5-bath cottage nestled on a spacious 1.3-acre wooded lot. Offering 1,560 square feet of living space, this inviting home blends original character with tasteful updates, creating the perfect year-round residence, weekend getaway, or rental property. The welcoming kitchen features beautiful hardwood floors, while the spacious living room showcases a vaulted ceiling with bright painted wood, stunning pine walls, & a cozy wood stove that creates the perfect gathering place, The finished walkout basement significantly expands the living space and includes a recreation room with woodstove, private office, laundry area, & abundant storage, providing flexibility for work, hobbies, or entertaining. Step outside & immerse yourself in the tranquility of the surrounding forest. Enjoy your morning coffee on the large, covered deck, unwind in the screened-in porch while listening to birdsong, or relax on the charming wooden garden patio complete with built-in planter boxes for your favorite flowers, herbs, or vegetables. A fire pit offers the perfect place to gather with family and friends under the stars. As part of the desirable Ausable Acres community, owners enjoy exclusive access to Lake Eaton's recreation area, the scenic West Branch of the Ausable River for fishing & swimming, tennis and pickleball courts, & more than 10 miles of trails for hiking, snowshoeing, & cross-country skiing--all for a remarkably low annual HOA fee of just $75. Ideally located only 15 minutes from Whiteface Mountain Ski Center and within 30 to 40 minutes of Lake Placid, Saranac Lake, Plattsburgh, Lake Champlain, & the High Peaks region, this exceptional location offers endless year-round recreation and convenience. If you've been searching for a private retreat where comfort, character, & nature come together, this enchanting forest cottage is ready to welcome you home.
