Discover a timeless lakeside retreat on the shores of Lake Champlain. This cozy one-bedroom seasonal cottage sits just steps from the water, offering 112 feet of frontage, mature trees, and glowing westerly sunsets that make every evening feel like a postcard moment. The setting is peaceful and rustic, with the kind of quiet charm that invites you to slow down, unwind, and enjoy the simple pleasures of summer living. Set on .34 acres of leased land with 32 years remaining and a fixed $20-per-year lease, the property delivers an exceptional combination of affordability, tranquility, and long-term stability that is rarely found along the lake. Schedule your showing today before this unique escape slips away. Showings begin Thursday May 28th.
