South Hero, VT | 14 Turtle Bay Lane

This private year-round Lake Champlain retreat is designed for an active Vermont lifestyle, with 101’ of private shoreline, a dock, expansive lake views, and exceptional access to boating, paddling, cycling, entertaining, and the Burlington area offering genuine year-round utility. Start the day with sunrise over the water, launch a kayak or boat from your own shoreline, & end it with dinner on the three-season porch, a waterfront fire, or cocktails beneath the stars. Superior boating access connects Malletts Bay, Colchester, the Broad Lake, and Burlington by water. A significant 2013 addition transformed the original post-and-beam home with an open, light-filled floor plan, radiant heat, and lake views from nearly every room. The chef’s kitchen centers on a 6’ quartz island and 36” Thermador range, while the dining area features built-ins and a memorable Tulikivi wood-fired heat stove and pizza oven. An overhead door opens the three-season porch to the ceiling, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor gathering space overlooking the lake. Upstairs, the 500+ square foot lake-facing primary suite offers cathedral ceilings, post-and-beam detail, and a spa bath with soaking tub and custom tile shower. A second lakefront bedroom includes a charming loft, while the renovated walkout lower level adds flexible entertaining, recreation, or guest space with beautiful water views and a new bath. The 30x45 carriage barn is a rare asset for an active household with over 43’ of depth, accommodating 4+ cars, a large boat, RV, bikes, kayaks, and recreational gear through a commercial 14’ door. Its finished upper level offers outstanding flexibility for an office, studio, recreation, guest overflow, or private retreat. Recent improvements include a new boiler, two new baths with tile showers, custom front entry door and sidelights, fresh exterior paint, professional landscaping, stone walls, circular drive, and waterfront fire pit. A remarkable Lake Champlain base camp for every season.
