A unique and spacious custom-built home, added in 1994 to the original 1800's home overlooking the Jay Range in charming Upper Jay, NY. The original home was built by one of the town's oldest families and a local business man, Mr. Silas Prime, in the mid 1800's, with the garage/home addition added in 1994. My wife and I live on the property in the older original home which is completely separate from the rental home.

This stately home is located 4 miles from Whiteface Mountain and 20 min from main street in Lake Placid. Surrounded by 100 foot white pines with rock garden landscaping and a children's playhouse, in addition to a large grassy area for a game of football or volleyball, it has a large blacktop basketball court that can be lit for nighttime games. The home offers comfortable sleeping arrangements for 6 adults. A unique feature of the home is that it is handicap ready with a fully functioning elevator in the garage taking you up to the 2500 square foot level of the home. Bathrooms are equipped with extra large pocket doorways and handicap railings. Some of the unique features include a large stocked galley kitchen with front load washer/dryer, granite counter-tops, skylights and a large hand cut granite fireplace with accompanying cathedral ceilings as part of the living room. The master suite has a large walk in closet and a private porch overlooking the flower garden. Master bath has a Jacuzzi tub with separate shower. Second private bedroom suite has large walk-in shower for easy access of wheelchair.

Home includes three flat screen tv's, and all have basic cable. Microwave and built in desk adjacent to the kitchen. Water filtration system. Walk in pantry will provide ample space.

Also available is the opportunity for snowmobiling, ice climbing and the Olympic venues of bob sledding, ski jumping, luge, speed and figure skating and snow shoeing! Come relive the magic of the 1980 winter Olympics!
