24 Holman Hill RoadHague, NY 12836Price: $1,875,000

Time Can Stand Still! Only the third time in nearly 140 years that one of Hague's most historic homes is being offered for sale. Built in 1884 and perched approximately 100 feet above Lake George on 1.3 acres, this extraordinary 4-BD residence is a remarkably preserved connection to another era. Facing east across the lake, the home commands some of the most spectacular views on Lake George, where magnificent sunrises unfold across the water and surrounding Adirondack mountains. Step inside and the passage of time is almost tangible. So much of the home's original character remains--from soaring ceilings and wide-plank floors to period furniture, fixtures, books and treasured details collected and preserved through generations. It is the kind of authenticity that simply cannot be recreated. Thoughtful improvements, including a new kitchen and full bath, complement the home's historic character. The residence offers 4 BD and 2½ BA, including a primary bedroom with magnificent lake views and its own private deck--an unforgettable setting for watching the moon rise over Lake George. Cherished for generations as a seasonal Lake George retreat, the residence offers the potential for conversion to year-round enjoyment while preserving the extraordinary character that makes it so special. From the home, wander down private footpaths beneath a canopy of old-growth forest to 117 feet of private Lake George shoreline and your own dock. The journey from the house to the water is part of the experience--a secluded woodland path connecting this historic retreat to one of to one of America's most beautiful lakes. High above the shoreline, surrounded by forest and history, 24 Holman Hill Road feels wonderfully removed from the modern world. This is more than a historic Lake George home. It is a place that has been cherished and preserved for generations, awaiting its next steward. For only the third time since 1886, the opportunity has arrived.
