Enjoy the BEST sweeping panoramic views of Lake Champlain and beyond (from Jay Peak to Mansfield to Killington) in a 2018-built contemporary on 10 private acres. A bygone state tourism brochure called this very vista, "The Beckoning Country." From your 4-bedroom/4-bath comfortably-designed 3-story home with *elevator*, stroll down to the bay (deeded access) with its seasonal community dock to fish or canoe, spy herons and hear loons, then return to relax on your private deck, soak in the hot tub, and retreat to the nifty media/game corner with its fireplace. Every morning experience a new sunrise delight. On the main-living second floor -- the large, bright, open kitchen-dining-den space serves a family and entertains guests while opening to the deck. This level also features a powder room with shower, and a king-bed bedroom suite with full bath. The top floor features a master bedroom suite with high deck and a large bathroom including steam shower, tub, and washer/dryer for convenience. Also, an office and an extra bedroom currently with bunk beds, plus a bonus mini-loft fun for kids. The first floor offers a separate-entrance rear unit with four rooms for an in-law space, or expand the overall home! Off the front foyer is: a large playroom/office, three story elevator, and stairway to the second floor. Special notes: Radiant floor heating throughout, with added heat pump wall units for fast heat or A/C. The expansive "Starry Ridge" property has it all -- buffering woods, and also the town's best sledding hill, site of occasional colorful hot-air balloon launches. Nearby: Try a variety of wonderful eateries and restaurants only minutes away, sip wines at Snow Farm Vineyard. Be an hour to bustling Montreal or snowy Stowe, half hour to charming Burlington. The current owners, occupiers of eleven past homes, call this their favorite one: "lots of peace and beauty." An extraordinary opportunity.
