In addition to Lake George, several other lakes lie within a 15-minute drive to the north, including Brant Lake, Schroon Lake, and Loon Lake. This part of the southern Adirondacks is also known for its extensive public lands, such as the Lake George Wild Forest and the Pharaoh Lake Wilderness Area, both easily accessible from nearby trailheads. The region's commercial hub, Glens Falls, is 30 minutes south and offers a hospital and small airport. Albany International Airport, with Amtrak service, is about an hour away. Montreal is 2.5 hours north, and Manhattan can be reached in approximately 3.5 hours. Access The property includes approximately 1,300 feet of frontage along Alder Brook Road, a paved, town-maintained road. An existing roughed-in road with a culverted entrance near the southern boundary leads to the upper clearing, where engineering work and test pits were completed. Plans are in place for stormwater management along the road if it were to be converted into a driveway. Electrical power is available at Alder Brook Road, simplifying future development. Property Description The property's highest and best use could suit a variety of interests, from a private single family residence to a small-scale rural subdivision, supported by the area's zoning for 5-acre lots. Extensive engineering work has been completed for a potential residence on the upper clearing, including stormwater management plans for both the house site and the conversion of the existing woods road into a permanent driveway, as well as a designed septic system. Alternatively, several level building sites near the road offer easier access and development potential. The land features level ground along the frontage, steeper middle terrain, and another level area at the top. With selective tree thinning, the upper section would provide dramatic 180-Degree year-round views of the valley below and the Lake George Range mountains to the east.
