    What's special

    Direct lake frontageWood wallsWrap-around enclosed porchSleeping porchNewer double dock system
    ORIGINAL COTTAGE PERCHED ABOVE THE SHORE OF LAKE DUNMORE, ONE OF VERMONT'S MOST BEAUTIFUL LAKES! With direct lake frontage, this throw back in time will captivate you with its wrap-around enclosed porch overlooking a southerly view of sparkling waters and majestic Green Mountains. Everyday living winds through the cottage kitchen onto the dining end of the enclosed porch and around through the cluster of folksy porch chairs into the original great room with exposed rafters, wood walls, and fireplace. An adjacent small bedroom also functions as a cozy den. The far end of the porch doubles as a sleeping porch where the sound of lapping waves will lull you to sleep after a day full of swimming, boating, fishing, and laughter. Tiptoe down to the on-grade lower level and discover three bedrooms all with views and soothing sounds from the lake. A full bath and storage/utility room with exterior doors add convenience here. Follow the path to the lake and you'll be delighted with lakeside lounging on the newer double dock system with space for several boats and lots of cannon ball jumping! Soak in the view, dip your toes, relax with a good book, and listen for the loons. Tuck boats and fishing tackle into the old-styled garage or even your bikes and golf clubs. Lake living is enhanced by this recreational mecca offering first-rate hiking, biking, golf, dining, culture, and a local hospital. Accessed by year-round road. Selling as is. Cottage needs updating - a treasure in the rough!
