    What's special

    Period architectural detailsDual-porch designOriginal hardwood flooringFour-bedroom home
    Located on the shores of Lake Champlain, this early 20th-century residence offers a rare blend of Gilded Age pedigree and modern-day serenity in the heart of Essex's historic district. A short stroll leads to the hamlet's signature bistros, boutique shops, and the renowned Essex Theatre--a private gateway to the best of the Adirondack Coast. Whether you are a sailor or a winter adventurer, the location is unparalleled. You are mere steps from the deep-water access of Lake Champlain and minutes from a sprawling network of trailheads perfect for hiking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. This four-bedroom home has been nicely maintained to preserve its timeless character while integrating contemporary updates. The rooms are accentuated by original hardwood flooring and period architectural details that tell a story of a century of refined living. The home's dual-porch design captures the true essence of lakefront living. A second-story screened porch provides a secluded retreat for warm summer evenings with elevated views of the glistening lake. Below, the classic front porch and traditional swing offer a front-row seat to the peaceful rhythm of the Essex ferry crossing the water--the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening cocktails. A standout feature is the mid-1800s equine barn. Originally built to house the horses that powered the historic ferry, this structure is reimagined for the 21st century with full power, serving as a robust workshop, creative studio, or ample storage for the discerning collector. Connected to municipal water and sewer, the home offers modern comfort in a setting that feels worlds away from the ordinary. This isn't just a house; it's a piece of Essex history. From the nearby ferry to Vermont to the preserved character of the horse barn, 2755 Essex Rd is a special opportunity for an authentic, walkable lifestyle on Lake Champlain.
