Built in 1886 for industrialist William H. Wickes, The Island House is the architectural and emotional heart of The Island House Estate. A grand white-porched residence set on its own private island in the pristine waters of Brant Lake, this Island House New York landmark is accessible only by water — offering the kind of absolute seclusion that cannot be manufactured. For those searching Island House real estate, this is a rare private island for sale unlike any other in the Adirondacks.
Step inside 4,122 sq. ft. where history and craftsmanship meet at every turn. Original pine floors, lovingly restored to their historic glory, anchor rooms steeped in character and grace. A magnificent fireplace imported from Italy crowns the living space with old-world romance, while covered and open porches encircle the home, made for long afternoons and cool island evenings.
This is a rare Gilded Age legacy — meticulously preserved, thoughtfully reimagined, and offered for the first time in more than eighty years.
At the heart of the residence, a brand-new chef’s kitchen is a showpiece unto itself, finished with granite countertops, a hand-laid marble mosaic backsplash, and a stainless steel farm sink that speaks to both function and beauty. The formal dining room, centered around a custom-built table that seats twenty-two, is an entertainer’s dream. Five generous bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths offer sanctuary for family and guests, while an outdoor shower and crisp white clapboard exterior echo the timeless charm of the lake’s storied past. An expansive dock welcomes up to five full-size boats, ensuring every arrival feels like a homecoming.
A rare legacy residence — where history, craftsmanship, and Adirondack romance converge on the shores of Brant Lake. Rarely does Island House real estate of this caliber — a true private island for sale — come to market, making The Island House one of the most distinctive offerings in Island House New York property today.
