About this property

This home is a great combination of natural surroundings with some modern amenities making it truly appealing. The large yard backed by trees, a mountain, and a stream offers a serene and private setting. Inside, the 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms provide ample space, while the large living room and mudroom add to the comfort. The partial walk-out basement is a nice touch for extra storage. The 896 Sq Ft drive-through garage/shop with an unfinished loft might just be perfect for anyone needing extra workspace or storage. The barn and machine shed add to the property's versatility, though the machine shed might need a bit of TLC. The paved driveway, security camera system, and automatic generator are great features for convenience and safety. Being just 4 miles from the Village of Speculator and its amenities, the Public Beach, and Oak Mountain Ski Center adds to the home's appeal. Plus, having access to the NYS Snowmobile trail is a fantastic bonus for outdoor enthusiasts. Survey available. BEING SOLD AS IS!

Questions to ask before you buy

Good questions for any home near the slopes.

  1. How is the property reached in winter, and who plows the road and driveway?A short straight-line distance can still mean a long or seasonal drive. Private roads, gates and mountain passes all shape winter access.
  2. Is there documented ski access from the property (trail, easement, lift), and does it transfer to a buyer?Rights to cross neighboring land or use a lift come from recorded easements and agreements, so a ski-in or ski-out description is where the question starts.
  3. Are there association, resort or club fees, and what do they cover?Some ski-area communities charge fees that cover only certain amenities, so ask what lift tickets, passes and services are included.
  4. Are there rules on renting the home short-term or long-term?Local ordinances, association covenants and deed restrictions all set rental rules, and they differ from place to place.
  5. What do heating, snow removal, winterization and utilities cost over a season?Ownership costs in snow country often run higher than the mortgage estimate suggests.
  6. For land: is there legal year-round access, and what utilities, septic and building rules apply?Seasonal roads and steep lots can limit what can be built and when it can be reached.
