Panton, VT | 358 Lake Road

The Lake House: The timeless rhythm of living on Lake Champlain. This Greek Revival home, on 15 acres, has 358 feet of lake frontage with a private boat ramp. The four-bedroom home, built of local Panton stone, overlooks Spaulding Bay, with expansive views of the Adirondacks and endless sunsets. To the North are Mud Island and Rock Island - protected habitats vital to migratory waterfowl and shorebirds, with regular sightings of bald eagles. At the heart of the home is a newly renovated chef's kitchen with curly birch floors and top of the line appliances. The Verde Antique counters were hand-selected at the Vermont quarry and one of the two islands is maple butcher block. The kitchen opens onto a wide porch, perfect for summer suppers. There is also a screened porch and a living room, both with views to the lake. A spacious bedroom is located on the first floor, while the second-floor primary suite features a private fireplace and a balcony with breathtaking views of the lake and high peaks. The property's grounds have been carefully tended over the last three decades. Perennial gardens, and specimen trees like a Bald Cypress create a living tapestry. Tiered stone walls form a stone amphitheater in a woodland setting leading to a seasonal brook. An attached greenhouse, raised beds, blueberry bushes, fruit and nut trees await green thumbs, while a lower-level workshop stands ready for projects.19 miles from Middlebury and 30 miles from Burlington.
