About this property
Beautiful Stone Home in Champlain Valley, Essex NY
This venerable stone home sits on 110 acres of conserved Adirondack parkland. There are 4 bedrooms (a single, a room with two twin beds, a room with a full size bed and the master bedroom has a queen). There are 2 full bathrooms, kitchen, living room and dining room as well as a TV room, patio and small front porch.

My house is surrounded by farms and farmland and some exceptionally beautiful homes. It has delicious views of the Green Mountains in Vermont, across the lake. The home is 3 miles from downtown Essex, NY, a town on the National Register of Historic Places. Essex is on Lake Champlain and offers lakeside restaurants, marina, the Essex/Charlotte ferry to VT and the quaint homes and shops that look much as they probably did 200 years ago.
It is easy to access Burlington VT by the ferry--a 25 minute ride.
