The Guest House — Bright, Artistic & Pet-Friendly

• 
  The full kitchen leads directly onto the screened-in porch. Kitchen Island from the dining table hand made by our neighbor, a talented woodworker. All the cooking space, utensils, cookware, and everything else you need, right there.
• 
  Welcome to the Guest House. Open floor concept plan, everything is located in one bright, loft-like room. Dining table is directly across from the kitchen island.
• 
  The Guest House! Located in Wells New York, one block away from Lake Algonquin on the Sacandaga River, in the Adirondack State Park. Two bedrooms with one full bath upstairs, and an open floor plan living area with a porch downstairs.
• 
  The shingles of Guest House are an interesting grey that looks blue in some light and brown in another. We love the lemon yellow of the door and the red roof!
• 
  Another view through the living room, showing a little more of the kitchen and out onto the spacious porch. Note the pine shiplap painted white. The whole house is like this.
• 
  Comfortable and cozy living room area. We like to have coffee here in the morning and read books or the news while listening to music on the Sonos. Very quiet and cozy.
• 
  It's so easy to jump up from the living room to prep some food or grab a drink and snacks from the kitchen.
• 
  We have a "faux" fireplace which does give off heat, neat piece of furniture. We have a Samsung 50", and an Apple TV loaded with Netflix. Games, puzzles, and lots of books for curious minds. Sonos for music.
• 
  We love books, and supply novels, reference books, comic books, classic literature and local history and information.
• 
  The living room from the bottom of the stairs, showing the sofas to the double doors to the porch. Two bookcases full of interesting reading, along with FIOS internet throughout the house.
• 
  Stairs from the living room up to the bedrooms and bathroom.
• 
  The one full bathroom is upstairs right between the two bedrooms.
• 
  Generous room size makes an area for a work space, where you can set up conference calls, zoom calls on our FIOS wifi internet connection.
• 
  Another view of the vaulted master bedroom. The architecture of the room fascinates me, and there's a feel of modern chic within.
• 
  The second bedroom is as comfortable as the master, with cool breezes at night thanks to the cross ventilation windows and an overhead fan. Plush bedding makes for a great night sleep. Cool art and posters warm up the room, making for a pleasant stay.
• 
  Another view of the colorful second beroom.
• 
  The reverse view of the second bedroom, showing the rich colors of the furnishings. You will sleep well here. A walk in closet provides plenty of room for your stuff.
• 
  The porch overlooks a backyard where you can relax. We planted maples and crabapple trees, arbor vitae, and other greenery, such as lilacs and raspberries. The birds love the backyard.
• 
• 
• 
  The backyard is an interesting little space, to sit outside and read, grill, or just sun yourself. Growing trees and plants surround you in lots of green.
• 
  We planted maples and crabapple trees, and everything is growing in nicely, creating a surround of green. Enjoy some privacy while sitting in the backyard.
