7176 Vt Route 17 West Addison, VT 05491

As you turn off of Vermont Route 17, passing the lush farmlands, you will likely be unprepared for the magical waterfront property that awaits you at the end of the private drive. The two acre lot, with an expansive lawn that gently slopes to a stone beach, is graced by a spectacular custom timber frame home with amazing lake and Adirondack mountain views! With a focus on waterfront living, the property includes a seasonal dock, boat mooring, and private beach of native limestone slabs. Elevated from the water, the home's wrap-around 3 season porch and large bluestone patio are stunning features. The home's interior features cherry hardwood and tile flooring on the first level and red birch flooring on the second floor loft. At the center of the home is the great room which soars to 25 feet, with a gray stacked stone wood burning fireplace and a wall of west facing windows to enjoy the lake/mountain views. The custom kitchen is a chef's dream and the Owner's suite on the main level has its own gas fireplace, full bath with shower and claw footed tub, and a French door to the back patio. Two large bedrooms on the second floor flank the open loft and have their own distinctive full baths. There is also a stone fire pit overlooking the beach and lake, and a charming 12 x 16 guest cottage with outdoor shower and half bath. For remote working, there is a high speed internet access 1 gigabyte fiber optic line to the house. Just 20 minutes to Vergennes or Middlebury.
