No agent fees · Direct from owner
Built with intention. Finished with care.
"Escape to your own private retreat — where handcrafted craftsmanship meets the tranquility of nearly 5 peaceful acres."
This custom-built authentic log home sits in the heart of Greenfield, NY — just minutes from Saratoga Springs. Thoughtfully crafted and meticulously maintained, it blends timeless rustic charm with refined modern comfort in a setting that makes every day feel like a getaway.
Inside, an open and sun-drenched floor plan is anchored by a stunning wall of windows that frames the surrounding natural beauty and fills the home with warmth and light. At the center of the living space sits a remarkable Tulikivi fireplace — handcrafted from authentic Finnish soapstone — offering both sophisticated design and sustainable, radiant warmth.
Every detail reflects exceptional craftsmanship: locally sourced hickory hardwood floors, river rocks brought from the Ausable River in Lake Placid, and a kitchen outfitted with high-end stainless steel appliances. This is a rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind home where quality, privacy, and nature come together seamlessly.

Craftsmanship you won't find anywhere else
From the soapstone fireplace to the hand-selected river rocks, every element of this home was chosen with care. This isn't a builder spec home — it's a labor of love on one of the most private lots in Greenfield.
Authentic log construction
Custom-built from real logs — not a manufactured log look. The warmth, texture, and character of genuine log construction throughout.
Tulikivi soapstone fireplace
A centerpiece worth tens of thousands alone. Finnish soapstone radiates heat for hours after the fire goes out — beautiful, efficient, and remarkable.
Wall of windows
Floor-to-ceiling windows bring the forest inside. Natural light floods the main living space, perfectly framing the surrounding trees and mountain views.
Handpicked materials
Locally sourced hickory hardwood floors. River rocks from the Ausable River in Lake Placid. Details chosen with intention, not convenience.
Nearly 5 private acres
4.96 acres of wooded land in the heart of Greenfield. Privacy, nature, and room to breathe — the kind of lot that simply doesn't come up often.
Finished basement
Additional living space below grade — ideal for a family room, home office, gym, or guest quarters. More square footage than the listing suggests.
