About this home
This classic Cape Cod sits back from the road on a private country lot that offers a variety of song birds and wildlife to watch off your covered front porch or your screened in back porch. The 10 acres invites the 'back to nature' in you to create a big garden space and become the steward of chickens and other farm animals. The property is pristine and move in ready with a new roof, new generator, gleaming wood floors, pellet stove insert in the fireplace and new carpet in the large bonus room over the attached garage. There is a first floor master suite with large walk-in shower and laundry room for one level living so guests can have access to the second floor. The property is near Lake Champlain with excellent fishing and boating access nearby. Middlebury, Addison's County Seat, is but minutes away from this quaint Town of Shoreham with orchards, christmas tree farm, ferry crossing, an Inn with fine dining and town green. This is the perfect place to relax after a hard day in the hustle and bustle of work. You will feel the stress melt away as you drive onto your paved drive leading to this beautiful country sanctuary.
