Hike Cascade in the morning, then cool your feet in Dart Brook by afternoon. This one-level 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch sits on 0.62 acres in Keene, NY, with Adirondack High Peaks views and the brook running along the back of the property, an easy walk from the porch to the water's edge.Inside, the 2012 full renovation delivers true Adirondack character with modern comfort: V-joint knotty pine walls and trim, wood and ceramic tile floors, and radiant in-floor heating underfoot. Gather around the wood pellet stove in the sunny living room, cook at the granite counters, and retreat to a primary suite with a walk-in closet and tiled walk-in shower. When the weather's good, Anderson French doors open to the deck, and the 10x35 covered porch is made for morning coffee and evening mountain views.The work is done. The home is wrapped in 5 inches of rigid insulation and heated by radiant floors and heat pumps, with Anderson 400-Series windows, a Therma-Tru insulated entry door, and Bali cellular shades. The unfinished basement is heavily insulated and protected by a 2024 Northern Basement Systems interior drainage system with dual sump pumps, battery backup, a new water heater (10/26), and a commercial dehumidifier. Recent upgrades include gutters, soffit vents, basement windows, added insulation, security cameras, and smart lighting.Trailheads are close: Cascade Mountain is 6 miles, Noonmark 8 miles, and Hurricane 13 miles. A paved driveway off a well-maintained main road and a detached 1-car garage make arrivals easy in any season. Short-term rentals are allowed. Whether it's a full-time home, a second home, or a turnkey hiking base, this is easy Keene living at the foot of the High Peaks.
