This property feels private with only 4 homes past it on its quiet cul-de-sac & bordered by the conserved Rosetti Natural Area. Only 6 miles to downtown Burlington yet far from the hustle. Designed for enjoying a healthy lifestyle and year-round outdoor activities. Long, sweeping lawns, an in-ground pool & your own private beach comprised of shallow clear water for swimming and water sports transform into a winter wonderland for skating, ice-fishing, and XC skiing. The home has been meticulously cared for and has potential for additional living space on the 3rd floor or to convert an in-law suite over the garage. Open spaces and natural light fill the interior. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom, two walk-in closets, a separate cozy office or yoga space & boasts great sunrise views over Lake Champlain. The kitchen is open to a large family area and sun room – a perfect area for entertaining. All four bedrooms are on the second floor, yet one of those meanders away from the others giving it a natural layer of privacy – perfect for a teen or guests. Solar panels on the south facing roof cover over 90% of the electricity usage. Enjoy a backyard BBQ next to the pool which boasts a diving-board and brick patio surround. End each day in the hot tub which is aptly sitting in its own room for easy use all year long. Your retreat awaits!
