Overview

Once in a lifetime chance to own this turn-of-the-century Colonial Revival estate, known as ”Villa Clara.” All the finer hallmarks of Colonial Revival architecture are present in this extraordinary home—coffered ceilings, custom wainscoting, rich hardwood floors throughout, thick concrete walls, and plastered interiors, adorned with exquisite Georgian and Federal architectural details.

During the turn of the century, modern materials like stucco were introduced for exterior siding, prized for their low maintenance, durability, energy efficiency, fire resistance, and noise insulation. ”Villa Clara” exemplifies these qualities, ensuring both beauty and practicality.

Perched on a hilltop in one of Lake Placid’s most prestigious neighborhoods, this home offers breathtaking views of Lake Placid and Whiteface Mountain. Two private outdoor porticos, located on the ground and second levels, provide sweeping panoramas. Inside, the home boasts 5 bedrooms—3 large bedrooms (2 ensuite) and 2 smaller bedrooms (original butler’s quarters, complete with a private staircase and bathroom).

”Villa Clara” is a vision of bespoke grandeur, reminiscent of an era when lazy summer days in the garden seamlessly turned into magical evenings on the porticos. Picture cocktail parties, dancing under the stars, and an ambiance of timeless elegance.

This is Lake Placid’s finest turn-of-the-century home, blending historic charm with modern comforts. Call us today to schedule a tour!
