About This Home

Set along 100 feet of owned Lake Champlain frontage in St. Albans, this year-round lakefront home offers an exceptional blend of comfort, thoughtful design, and four-season enjoyment - ideal as a full-time residence or four-season retreat. Walls of windows frame sweeping lake views and glowing sunsets, while the gentle sound of water lapping the shoreline creates a peaceful backdrop during the warmer months. The lakeside setting is enhanced by a multi-tiered, expansive deck perfect for entertaining, relaxing, and taking in the ever-changing scenery, as well as a private ramp for easy dock installation and removal. Extensive improvements and additions have been completed, including a beautifully updated primary ensuite bath, first-floor bath and laundry room, and a spacious mudroom conversion an essential feature for Vermont living. Additional upgrades include a standing seam roof, sea wall and privacy fencing, paved driveway, and thoughtfully designed hardscaping, along with updated mechanical and electrical systems that support efficient, comfortable living in every season. Inside, the main level offers an open-concept kitchen, dining area with sliding doors to the deck, and a welcoming living space filled with natural light, plus an additional private room that can be tailored to your needs, home office, guest space, or den. The lower level provides a generous family room, game room, or recreation space with direct access to the lakeside, along with two additional flexible rooms. The upper level features the primary ensuite bedroom and an additional bedroom, creating a private retreat above it all. Enjoy Lake Champlain year-round, from summer boating and lakeside gatherings to winter skating and ice fishing, all while remaining conveniently close to local amenities. This exceptional property offers the space, updates, and setting to be enjoyed in every season. *Generated AI Summer Photos (GenAI-SV)
