About this home
A unique opportunity to build in one of Shelburne's sought after and well established neighborhoods. Originally developed in the late 90's, opportunities to design and build a home in the Ridgefield neighborhood haven't existed in recent years. Just imagine the possibilities when you bring your own vision, and take advantage of this amazing setting. The lot is bright and open, and the stone walls and established landscaping add great character to the property. You'll love the spectacular sunsets from the back yard and the wintertime views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondacks. Save time and money on your build and take advantage of the infrastructure currently in place. A drilled well, along with power, cable, natural gas, and public septic hookups are all on site. It's just minutes to the vibrant Shelburne Village with its schools, restaurants, and many local amenities. There are endless opportunities to play and explore, with Lake Champlain, the Shelburne Museum, and Shelburne Farms being just a few of the attractions that are seemingly at your fingertips. Downtown Burlington, the UVM Medical Center, and Burlington International Airport are just 20 minutes away. This is a truly a rare and special opportunity.
