Wow!!! Winterized home directly on a sandy level beach on Echo Lake. Road frontage is estimated. A rare opportunity to become a homeowner on one of the most pristine lakes. About 530 acres and over a mile long. This charming home has had only 2 owners. The first was for over 50 years. This home started as an A Frame and then a large addition added to its living space. 1st floor has a large living room with brick fireplace and open to the kitchen. Large entry and a sun room of sorts that is being used as a bedroom. 3/4 bath here too. 2nd floor has a large office currently used as an office/ bunk room, 2 bedrooms and a 1/2 bath. And, EVERY room except 1 bedroom faces the lake. Both upstairs bedrooms have private balconies. The town says this is a 2 bedroom house. I count 3 to 4.
Experience the best of Vermont's Northeast Kingdom from this private 10-acre retreat, ideally situated between Seymour Lake and Island Pond. Bordering 1,400 acres of conserved land owned by the NorthWoods Stewardship Center, the property offers direct access to an extensive trail network from established trails on the property. Hike, snowshoe, watch wildlife, or simply explore right from your backyard, with nearby VAST access for even more year-round recreation. Set well back from the road, the home offers a spacious, flexible layout with a large eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, inviting living room featuring a pellet stove and electric fireplace, bright sunroom overlooking the newly updated deck and backyard, thoughtfully designed mudroom with built-in storage, and a bath with laundry. Upstairs, the private primary bedroom is tucked away with its own staircase and access to a full bath, while two additional bedrooms and an office nook complete the second floor. The finished lower level adds a family room, guest space, bathroom, and a playroom, exercise room, or hobby space. Outside, approximately two acres of open field attract abundant wildlife, making it ideal for nature lovers or hunters. Established apple trees, blueberry and raspberry bushes, and an outdoor fireplace create the perfect setting for summer evenings, family gatherings, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The paved driveway leads to an oversized 3-4 car garage with a 10' x 10' overhead door, heated rear bay with a wood stove, and an insulated heated workshop or office, offering exceptional space for projects, storage, recreational equipment, or working from home. Just minutes from boating, fishing, swimming, local dining, and shopping, you'll enjoy the perfect balance of convenience, recreation, and privacy. This is more than a home, it's a place to experience the best of Vermont's Northeast Kingdom.
One of the most spectacular properties in the Northeast Kingdom. Built by master carpenter Daniel Lamadeleine, the property features not just one but two beautiful homes on a gorgeous, level ten-acre wooded lot including a three-and-a-half-acre meadow, a beautiful stream and pond potential. 673 is a stunning structure, a modern 2BR+ twin lofts, handcrafted kitchen, dining area and a family room looking out over the meadow and an especially unusual Dr. Seussian leaning pine. Over the gorgeous chef's kitchen, check out the insanely hip winch-powered, open-frame elevator for access to the western loft. The ground floor includes a massive pine floor and pine wall L-shaped open studio, a floor-to-ceiling window potential office and a half bathroom. 675 is a traditional 4BR cape that has been used as a rental to significantly offset carrying costs and property taxes. A soaking tub and secret ground-floor bedroom closet appears to be just a bookcase. This rare mix of stunning homes and prime property with an occupancy-ready rental cottage offers utilitiy, style and investment appeal. Poised to launch the artist, craftsperson, micro-farmer or urbanite looking to get away from it all. Dazzle guests. Raise chickens, lambs, pigs or build an equestrian riding ring and farm barn. Ski Burke, Jay Peak and paddle the NEK ponds and lakes including nearby majestic Lake Willoughby. Paradise. The 2,964 square feet are for both homes finished square footage combined and the Barn house likely has considerably more finished square footage than is stated on the lister card.
