About this property
Spacious Family Getaway close to Jiminy Peak
Quaint farmhouse in beautiful Sand Lake. Close to Crystal Lake, Glass Lake and Crooked Lake. 20 minutes from Albany, 40 minutes from Saratoga and the track and 25 minutes to Jiminy Peak! Amazing restaurants and shopping are so close, June Farm and Old Daly inn to name a few. With hiking and swimming in the summer and cross country and downhill skiing in the winter, this is a destination spot not to be missed! And did I mention a view of Albany you can’t beat?
Master bedroom and bath on the 1st floor, along with a cozy family room with fireplace and eat in kitchen with unique coffee and wine bar. Two comfortable bedrooms with king beds in each and a full bath on 2nd floor. Basement has smaller bedroom with full bed, plus an office with a daybed and trundle. Game room and fireplace in the basement round it out to make it a perfect spot to relax after exploring, hiking or skiing!
