About this home
Gorgeous year round Colchester cape on Mills Point, looking to start the next chapter in its story. This neighborhood is a great taste of lake living. The home is located just a short walk to Lake Champlain, backs up to the Colchester Causeway, and has mooring rights. The neighborhood is loaded with right of ways and beach access, and is a short walk to Airport Park. The kitchen has seen many upgrades. Convenient living space layout includes a bedroom on the first floor as well as the laundry room, creating the opportunity for single floor living. Two spacious bedrooms on the second floor make this home live larger than many others in the neighborhood. Newer roof on the main house. This home is truly a must see. Come see it before it is gone, and make that next chapter yours.
