JACKSON BROOK~ A Unique Legacy Wilderness Estate | 645± Acres | 5 Parcels. Welcome to Jackson Brook, an unparalleled legacy estate encompassing 645 pristine acres, spanning 5 parcels adjoining 25 miles of Adirondack Wilderness Preserve. The house is surrounded by an incomparable magnificent 200-degree panoramic view - of the Green Mountains and Lake Champlain, extending south and west to the Adirondack high peaks, including Mount Marcy; and from the cliffs above - almost all of Lake Champlain to the foothills of Canada. Privacy is complete, the landscape untouched, & nature revealed at every turn. Adirondack wildlife is unusually abundant. The 5100 sq ft Adirondack-style residence was designed to frame the surrounding panorama w/floor-to-ceiling windows, warm natural materials & effortless indoor-outdoor living. Highlights include an expansive kitchen, grand stone fireplace, 4 private suites, hardwood floors throughout & a tranquil three-season porch that invites morning coffee with spectacular sunrise views & restful reflection. A 1.25-mile stretch of Jackson Brook, with pristine wilderness headwaters, crosses the land. Outdoor recreation is boundless: informal skiing from the Duquette cliffs 500 feet above the house, rock climbing, cross-country skiing, horseback riding, trout fishing & hiking. The estate is exceptionally peaceful, offering a rare environment with only the sounds of nature. Adirondack wildlife is unusually abundant. Yet for all its remarkable privacy, Jackson Brook is minutes from Westport/Essex & Lake Champlain recreational lifestyle --boating, sailing, kayaking, fishing, swimming, marinas & exploring the lake. A nearby ferry crosses to scenic Vermont. All of this is conveniently close to Lake Placid/Whiteface offering world-class skiing, dining, shopping, & 4-season recreation. This is not simply a home, it is a sanctuary of nature, privacy & possibility; an heirloom property to be treasured for generations.
