Set along the coveted western shoreline of Lake Champlain in the heart of the Champlain Islands, this extraordinary 13+ acre estate offers over 350 feet of prime lake frontage and sweeping Adirondack views. With its prized west-facing orientation, each evening ends with spectacular sunsets reflected across the water. Custom built in classic Adirondack style and clad in timeless cedar shingles, the residence offers more than 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. The dramatic 33 x 38 foot great room is the architectural centerpiece, showcasing a commanding stone fireplace, and walls of glass that frame the lake beyond. Gleaming birch floors and natural wood finishes create warmth and understated elegance throughout. Radiant heated floors provide exceptional comfort, while mini-split systems offer efficient cooling in summer months. A geothermal heating system, paired with solar roof panels and solar trackers, underscores a commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency without sacrificing luxury. The chef’s kitchen, appointed with cherry and birch cabinetry, is designed for both refined entertaining and relaxed daily living. A private first-floor primary suite offers a serene retreat, while three additional bedrooms and well-appointed baths provide generous accommodations for family and guests. Multiple porches and expansive decks capture lake breezes and uninterrupted views. Step to your shoreline to enjoy boating, swimming, and world-class fishing. The expansive acreage allows for a guest house, gentleman’s farm, equestrian pursuits, or simply preserving privacy and pastoral beauty. Though peacefully secluded, this exceptional property is just 20 miles to Burlington and approximately one hour to Montreal—offering the perfect balance of privacy, proximity, and refined Lake Champlain living.
