    What's special

    Your Vermont lake getaway is calling! Tucked away on just over an acre near Lake Champlain, this charming seasonal cottage offers a simple, easygoing escape where summer days are meant to be spent outside and evenings are made for relaxing on the screened porch. Inside, the cottage makes smart use of its space with an open kitchen and living area featuring vaulted ceilings, a skylight, plenty of natural light, a kitchen island, and built-in cabinets for added storage. Recent improvements have refreshed the interior with paint and repairs, while the bedroom was finished with new flooring and a ceiling to create a more comfortable and functional space. The electrical system has also been upgraded, including a new panel box. A 3/4 bath completes the interior, while the screened porch and deck extend the living space outdoors. Follow the right-of-way to Lake Champlain for a swim, a paddle, or simply some time by the water. Back at the cottage, the secluded and landscaped 1.07-acre lot offers plenty of ways to unwind. Pick fresh blueberries from your own bushes, enjoy s’mores around the firepit, relax on the porch, or simply soak up the peaceful surroundings. An exterior camper hookup adds flexibility for your summer adventures, while a shed provides additional storage for your gear. Currently operated as an Airbnb, the property is being offered fully furnished, making it easy to settle in and start enjoying it right away, or explore its continued potential as a seasonal rental. Whether you're looking for a personal Vermont escape, a cozy home base near the lake, or a furnished seasonal getaway with rental potential, this cottage offers a lot of summer living in a wonderfully compact package.
