The home
About this home
Escape to your own private sanctuary on the shores of Lake Champlain. Nestled on a spacious, beautifully wooded lot, this hidden gem offers privacy and breathtaking, westerly panoramic views of both the shimmering lake and the Adirondack mountains. The charming main cottage features a bright, open-concept living space designed for effortless relaxation. With three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath, it is the perfect retreat. Large, expansive windows line the walls, flooding the home with natural light and framing the stunning water views from almost every angle. If needed, the woodstove can warm up a chilly night or help extend the season. Whether you are enjoying a quiet morning coffee or watching a vibrant sunset paint the sky at the end of a busy day, the scenery here is simply spectacular. Just steps away, an incredible bonus awaits in the detached boat house. The upper level provides flexible extra living space complete with a convenient half bathroom, ideal for hosting guests or creating a private studio. Down below, the lower level opens up to a summer kitchenette and a private deck sitting directly on the water. It is the ultimate setup for lakeside entertaining, fishing, swimming, boating, afternoon barbecues, or simply soaking in the peaceful sounds of the lake.
