Experience the best of Vermont with wonderful Lake Champlain and Green Mountain views from this enjoyable 12-acre waterfront property. Custom-built by its original owner using impressive Canadian logs from British Columbia, this timeless log home features a thoughtfully designed floor plan by renowned local architect Brad Rabinovitz. Enjoy 178 feet of direct Lake Champlain frontage with a private boat ramp, lakeside viewing deck, and easy-access stairs to the water. The sunny, level grounds include a barn with updated siding and roof, scenic walking trails, and plenty of open space to enjoy the outdoors. Inside, soaring cathedral ceilings and a dramatic floor-to-ceiling custom stone fireplace anchor the great room, while a wall of windows frames the lake and mountain views. The inviting open kitchen is designed for gathering, featuring a large granite center island, walk-in pantry, and adjoining dining area with doors leading to expansive new low-maintenance decking. The first floor includes a primary suite and a flexible office that can also serve as a guest bedroom. Architect-designed arched openings add warmth and character throughout this custom home. Upstairs, an open family room and two additional bedrooms overlook the great room, enhancing the home's airy feel and dramatic cathedral ceilings. Comfort and efficiency are ensured with radiant floor heat, a new furnace, a new heat pump water heater, and a new roof, reflecting the exceptional care and maintenance this one-owner home has received. Walk to Shore Acres Resort next door! An easy drive to Burlington, Vermont, and Montreal. Furnishings and boat are negotiable. With Town and State wastewater approvals, there is potential to subdivide and create an additional building lot.
