Residential Land with Home for Sale in Keene Valley, New York

Surrounded by the Adirondack High Peaks, Brooknoll is an architecturally unique 3-story summer home originally built in 1876 by John Matthews, a patent holder for the soda fountain. The house is sited on one of the significant rock knolls that dot the sides of Keene Valley's beautiful mountain landscape and was memorably photographed by famed photographer Seneca Ray Stoddard. While retaining its historic character, the property has 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms including a new master en suite. Impressive stonework, massive living room with signature fireplace, extensive porches and a deck with views of the surrounding mountains and Porter Brook flowing through an arched stone bridge make Brook Knoll a special spot for summer gatherings. While located close to Keene Valley village and on the town bike path linking to Keene, the 7-acre property features a private looped driveway and an extensive quiet backyard. A more recently constructed garage offers room to store a car as well as workspace and an upstairs playroom. Brooknoll is 2 hours south of Montreal, 4.5 hours from NYC and Boston and under 2 hours to International Airports in Burlington and Albany.
