58 Interlaken Avenue, Lake Placid

Opportunities like this are few and far between. Villa Clara is a prime example of early 20th-century Colonial Revival architecture--strategically positioned on a hilltop lot in one of Lake Placid's most established and desirable neighborhoods, with commanding views of Lake Placid and Whiteface Mountain.This legacy property combines historical significance with long-term intrinsic value. The grounds feature mature gardens and stonework inspired by the estates of Interlaken Avenue--an area known for generational holdings and architectural pedigree. The landscaping has been maintained with a focus on historic preservation and visual impact, reflecting both past investment and future potential.The residence itself is constructed to last--solid concrete walls with plaster interiors, original hardwood flooring, coffered ceilings, custom millwork, and classic Georgian and Federal influences, with a tasteful incorporation of modern stucco finishes. The layout includes five bedrooms--three oversized bedrooms (two with en suite baths) and two smaller bedrooms originally used as staff quarters, complete with private staircase and bath, ideal for modern flex use or additional guest capacity.Expansive covered porticos on both floors provide panoramic views and seamless indoor-outdoor living--delivering a setting equally suited for private relaxation or high-end entertaining.Villa Clara offers not only architectural integrity and irreplaceable views, but also long-term protection of its surrounding value. The adjacent Garden Lot includes deeded, perpetual no-build restrictions--ensuring the historic nature of the site (formerly the grounds of an 1800s church) is preserved and that future sightlines and tranquility remain intact.This is more than a luxury residence--it's a finite asset in a market defined by scarcity, history, and elevated lifestyle.** SOME IMAGES ARE VIRTUALLY STAGED **
