About this home
Experience one of Lake Champlain's most enchanting waterfront retreats. Set on 273 feet of owned Lake Champlain frontage, this rare property captures breathtaking easterly views across the lake to Mount Mansfield and the Green Mountains, where spectacular sunrises become part of everyday life. The charming main cottage is the quintessential Vermont lake house filled with warmth, character, and timeless appeal. A spacious screened porch serves as the heart of the home, offering sweeping panoramic lake views, refreshing summer breezes, and the peaceful sounds of the water just steps away. A separate cottage, complete with a half bath, offers exceptional flexibility as a retreat, artist's studio, office space, or private hideaway. Two stairways lead to the shoreline, where a beautiful beach and gently sloping waterfront invite endless days on the lake. Just offshore, the lake opens to a sandy bottom and crystal-clear water, creating outstanding swimming conditions for all ages. Whether you're swimming, paddle boarding, kayaking, boating, fishing, or simply relaxing by the water's edge, this is Lake Champlain living at its finest. Boat moorings are available, making it easy to enjoy everything the lake has to offer. Set on three quarters of an acre of owned land, this unique property also offers the potential to convert to year-round living, allowing you to enjoy this extraordinary setting through every season. Whether you're seeking a peaceful summer escape, a place to gather family and friends, or a legacy property to be cherished for generations, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Lake Champlain's most captivating waterfront settings where timeless charm, breathtaking natural beauty, and unforgettable memories come together.
Malletts Bay, located between Colchester Point and the Winooski River delta, is a lakeside and residential Burlington neighborhood with a working-marina shoreline and pocket beaches. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Malletts Bay Boat Club and the adjacent causeway path, where sail masts, launch ramps, and shoreline walkers set the tempo. Low-slung lake cottages mix with newer townhomes on curving roads that follow the bay’s coves. Bayside Park frames daily routines with a boat launch, picnic lawns, and long lake views. The vibe stays outdoorsy, with paddlesports and sunset watching shaping the calendar. Nearby, the Winooski Causeway adds a long, linear promenade across open water.
