This contemporary log home located on just over 10 acres will take your breath away! As you enter you're greeted by a wall of windows and gorgeous Lake Champlain, Adirondack, and sunset views. Soaring ceilings highlight a two-story local stone chimney with a Defiant wood stove to provide heat and ambiance in the winter. The windows offer loads of light to the open living room, dining area, and kitchen. The kitchen is defined by custom river granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a Boos Block island with pull-out storage. The first floor also has a bedroom and a ¾ bathroom with laundry. Upstairs is a loft for an office or to sleep guests. The new bathroom has a custom vanity and tiled walk-in shower. The spacious primary bedroom has a sitting area and two generous closets. The large unfinished basement has shelving for storage and the attached garage has more attic storage and power. Enjoy the views while relaxing and entertaining on the large front and back decks. Outside is a large shop with a cement floor with power, an Amish shed, a poultry coop, mature trees for privacy, and a partially fenced yard. The rest of the acreage is mostly wooded with older trails and paths that can be explored to the nature lover's delight. This beautiful home, meticulously-maintained with upgraded windows and newer roof, is in an ideal location, one minute to the ferry to New York, 30 minutes to Burlington, and 1 ½ hours to Montreal, yet it feels set apart in its own idyllic spot.
