239 shore

The Long Point Community is one of the last vestiges of a simpler time when entire families moved to the lake to escape the heat of the city. One of only 15 homes on Lake Champlain's Long Point with a year-round lease, this cottage was fully renovated in 2009 by the current owners, from the pier footings up, & has been lightly used since. Perched on the highest spot on a private point, the home is bordered by the lake on 2 sides, with views north & west. This property also has 2 private points of direct entry to deep water in Lake Champlain. One access leads down concrete steps, affixed with eye bolts to accept the end of a dock. The 2nd is a long concrete boat launch, perfect for pulling up canoes, kayaks, paddle boards, or dinghies. Directly off the shoreline is deep water & the possibility of up to 3 private moorings. The 3-bed, 1-bath cottage has the fresh scent of knotty pine that covers the walls and ceilings. With dramatic cathedral ceilings & exposed beams, the open concept kitchen/living room is bright & spacious, with great mountain & lake views. The compact kitchen is equipped with all the modern conveniences: gas cooking, large refrigerator, dishwasher, & porcelain double farm sink. The custom cupboards provide ample storage for small kitchen appliances, dishes, & foodstuffs. Unlike most homes on Long Point, this one has a large 2-car garage with an electric door & storage loft on a nearby lot. If you're looking for a private escape, this home is a must-see.
