Lakefront Living on Lake Rescue- Minutes from Okemo Mountain. Rarely does a Lake Rescue property offer this combination of location, views, privacy and four-season appeal. Perched above the clear waters of Lake Rescue, this distinctive lake house offers sweeping water views, easy access to boating and swimming, and the convenience of being just minutes from Okemo Mountain. Whether your ideal day is spent on the lake, on the slopes, or gathered around a fire with family and friends, this is a home designed to be enjoyed in every season. The home features three bedrooms and two full baths, with a thoughtfully designed kitchen featuring custom concrete countertops, and an open, comfortable feel. Dedicated laundry, a wood-burning stove, a versatile lower-level workout or game room, and storage add the practical conveniences that make this an easy year-round home or vacation retreat. Outside, the lake is the star. Private decks on both lower levels take advantage of the property's elevated position and panoramic water views. The recently installed, custom, Dock Doctors dock and 5 ft water depth, makes swimming, boating and getting in and out on the lake effortless. To top it off, a four-person hot tub and stone fire pit create the perfect setting for relaxing after a day of skiing, boating, hiking, or simply enjoying the beauty of Lake Rescue. A detached one-car garage with EV charger and overhead storage provides additional room for a car, boat, bikes, skis, and all the equipment that comes with lake and mountain living. Also notable is that the property includes a Vermont Wastewater Permit for a four-bedroom home, providing valuable flexibility for future expansion, customization, or rebuilding. With its accessible water frontage, expansive lake views, cozy interior, exceptional outdoor amenities, and proximity to Okemo Mountain, 52 Fishing Access Road is much more than a seasonal lake house. It's a place to gather, relax, and make the most of Vermont in every season.
This is the perfect vacation lake home, nestled in and on a knoll overlooking pristine Round Pond on Lake Rescue. Beautiful landscaped stone walls and shrub-lined paths lead you to the lake where your boat is docked. There are quaint year-round sitting areas to reflect after your day on the lake, complete with a firepit for stargazing and a hot tub on the deck to unwind after a day on the slopes. What more could you ask for! This home is located just 5 miles from the Jackson Gore ski area and the village of Ludlow, home of the Okemo world class ski area and within close proximity to Killington and other VT ski areas. Enjoy the present three-bedroom, two-bath cottage for a lifetime of fun or use it temporarily as you design and build your dream home. The 1+ acre lot with a state-permitted septic system and drilled well allow you to build a four-bedroom home. A great option would be to use the existing cottage as a beach cabana and storage for your beach and boating equipment. This prime location in central Vermont's lake and recreation mecca awaits you on beautiful country back roads. Get back to nature and enjoy walking, running, and mountain/road biking. A must-see spot! Being sold un-furnished.
