Modern post & beam, mountain views. Minutes from Lake Champlain, near Sugarbush

"Maplecrest" is the name of our sun filled post and beam vacation house, the perfect place for a family or group of friends to enjoy year round! Pick up your provisions and produce at Gilfeathers gourmet general store (2 miles), in Vergennes (4 miles), Shelburne (12 miles), or Middlebury (17 miles) then relax on the beautiful deck with a view, or warm up on the comfy couch by the fire. Or, simply spend hours soaking in the pastoral farm landscape with the Green Mountains to the south and Adirondacks to the west.

Cookout on the grill, and use the expansive modern kitchen to create farm to table dishes to serve in the open concept dining room and/or outside on the deck. Enjoy the loft as a private hangout space with great views. Explore the gardens and field on a peaceful walk or snowshoe to the pond where flora and fauna abound. Enjoy paddling around Lake Champlain in a kayak or canoe launched from Kingsland Bay State Park in the summer. Slip into the hot tub after skiing, hiking, biking or paddling, then play games in this bright and spacious home.
