Description

Buck Bay South is a boathouse constructed in the early 2000s with a connected 1930s cabin, set on Buck Island. This distinctive waterfront property blends modern comfort with classic Adirondack charm, highlighted by a spacious porch with sweeping views of Pulpit Rock. The property offers three bedrooms and two full bathrooms across its thoughtfully designed living spaces. The boathouse features an expansive living area with vaulted ceilings and a striking stone fireplace, creating a dramatic yet inviting gathering space. It also includes two covered boat slips and a large sauna--offering both comfort and immediate access to the water. The attached cabin has been thoughtfully renovated to preserve its character while incorporating modern updates. It features a full kitchen with new appliances, two full bathrooms, a new washer and dryer, and a screened porch. A second fireplace anchors the kitchen, bringing warmth and rustic charm to the heart of the space. Infrastructure improvements include spray foam insulation in the boathouse walls and ceilings, insulated windows, and electric baseboard heat supported by a 200-amp service. The cabin has been upgraded with a new roof, plumbing, and electrical systems. The property is serviced by a new engineered septic system and a combined 400-amp electrical service supporting both structures. An additional accessory building provides flexible space ideal for storage, a studio, or a gym. Buck Island is just a short boat ride from the mainland marina, providing convenient access while preserving the seclusion and privacy of an island setting. The two covered slips and sold mostly furnished. Easy to show !
