Description
A private Vermont lakefront retreat without sacrificing access to Burlington, this exceptional property offers 101’ of private Lake Champlain shoreline & rare access to the best of lake living. This exceptional property blends everyday comfort with rare entertaining capacity, nautical access, & remarkable flexibility. Morning coffee begins at sunrise with gentle waves at the shore; evenings stretch from dinner on the lake to the fire pit, waterfront deck, dock, & starlit gatherings. Superior boating access connects Malletts Bay, Colchester, the Broad Lake, & Burlington by water. A 2013 post-and-beam addition transformed the home with an open, light-filled floor plan, lake views from nearly every room, & radiant heat underfoot. The chef’s kitchen features a 36 Thermador range, motorized microwave, 6’ quartz island, painted cabinetry, & beautiful backsplash. The dining area includes built-ins and a memorable Tulikivi wood-fired pizza oven. A whimsical overhead door opens the three-season porch to the ceiling, creating an indoor-outdoor dining space that invites lingering meals past sunset. Upstairs, the lake-facing primary suite spans over 500 sq. ft. with cathedral ceilings, post-and-beam detail, & a spa bath with soaking tub, 5’ custom tile shower, double rain shower heads, & river rock tile. A second lakefront bedroom offers a charming loft, & the renovated family bath includes another custom tile shower. Dual laundry areas add convenience. The freshly renovated walkout lower level expands at-grade entertaining with stunning lake views & a new bath with 5’ tile shower. The adjacent 30x40 carriage barn accommodates 4+ cars, a large boat, or full-size RV through a commercial 14’ door. Upstairs offers impressive flex space for an office, studio, guest overflow, recreation, or private retreat. Recent upgrades include a new boiler, custom front entry door, fresh exterior paint, & professional landscaping including stone walls, circular drive, & waterfront fire pit.
