Description
Set along the scenic west shore of South Hero among upscale homes and lake properties this exceptionally private contemporary retreat with hiking and cross -country Ski trails is nestled on 10 wooded acres surrounded by mature maples, cedars, and pines. Thoughtfully renovated and reimagined, the home's distinctive elevated design embraces its natural setting with multiple levels, abundant windows, and an extraordinary amount of natural light throughout.

A former screened porch has been transformed into a cozy year-round living space complete with built-in bookshelves, a charming window seat, and a Vermont Castings LP gas stove. New decking wraps nearly the entire residence, creating multiple outdoor spaces for entertaining, alfresco dining, or simply enjoying the peaceful woodland surroundings.
