What's special
Set on 81 feet of premier frontage along picturesque Lake Rescue, this exceptional Vermont retreat captures the essence of lakeside living. Perfectly positioned on the quieter backside of the lake, the home enjoys extended daylight along with breathtaking sunrises and sunsets that paint the sky year-round. Inside, a spectacular stone wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, where expansive windows frame stunning water views and flood the space with natural light. Meticulous craftsmanship is evident throughout, with magnificent stonework and thoughtful details enhancing every room. The heart of the home is a wide-open custom kitchen designed for both gathering and entertaining, featuring two islands, granite and butcher block countertops, and a gas range. The main level offers true convenience with a primary suite, private office, mudroom with ample storage, laundry area, and a half bath, all designed for easy living. Upgrades include a recently replaced roof (just one year old), ensuring peace of mind for years to come. A detached two-car garage includes a charming apartment above, perfect for guests, rental income, or a private studio space. Outdoors, beautifully curated plantings and a gentle creek create a serene setting to complement the lakefront lifestyle. Whether you’re swimming, boating, kayaking, skiing, golfing, hiking, snowmobiling, skating, or fishing, this property offers year-round recreation, or simply the perfect place to relax and take it all in. A true Vermont picture, where views, ambiance, and lifestyle come together in one remarkable offering.
