Leading architectural firm TruexCullins designed this award-winning home specifically for the site. This 31.5 acre Lake Champlain estate contains a secluded crescent beach with grandfathered boat launch. Its park-like grounds possess majestic white pines and old growth oaks with spectacular views of the Adirondacks. The home's meticulous design and craftsmanship blend natural materials, functionality and elegance. An impressive stone and glass atrium walkway connects the wings of the house. The custom kitchen opens to a dining enclave overlooking the lake. The kitchen also serves a large circular slate and stone veranda as well as a stunning great room with a double-sided stone fireplace. The private bedroom wing has a relaxing, lakeside master suite with a sunroom. An easy 20 minutes to Burlington Vt. Additional renovated Farmhouse & lakefront lot.
