Second floor is accessed via ipe catwalk with LED runway track lighting. All exterior lighting is controlled by motion sensors and timers.

In addition to the interior living space, the house was designed to take advantage of its wonderful natural setting and sweeping vistas. All living spaces have extensive windows that fully capture the panorama and bring the outside in. There are three glass doors that allow guests to access the decks, patio, two fire pits and grounds.

The Neighborhood:

The property borders the town of Charlotte, Shelburne and Hinesburg and is situated in the fertile Champlain Valley with a series of hills, ridges and mountain views. This region hosts a large network of working farms and forests that are flourishing from the productive Champlain Valley soils. Sugar bushes, orchards, dairies, berry farms, a winery, craft brewery, craft distillers, market gardens, livestock operations, honey houses, grain and community supported agriculture are just some of the area's flourishing enterprises. These lands also provide many of the vast scenic landscapes, community trails, parks and Wildlife Refuge, and the famous Mt. Philo State Park. Residents and visitors enjoy the buzz of farm activity and the quiet Vermont countryside.

Recreational opportunities abound. Lake Champlain is a mecca of summertime life. Residents and visitors can use the town beaches for swimming and relaxing. There are boat launches for sailing, fishing, water skiing, windsurfing and other water sports. There are tennis courts, and numerous parks and trails for hiking as well spectacular roads for cycling, walking and touring. The area is renowned for spectacular fall foliage and is an excellent base for leaf peeping. Winter sports include snow shoeing and cross country skiing , and several of Vermont’s famous ski resorts including Stowe, Sugarbush and Mad River are between a 30 -50 minute drive.

Burlington, the state’s largest city, is home to numerous restaurants, cafes, shops, galleries, nightlife and the University of Vermont. Nearby are Shelburne Farm, Shelburne Museum, Echo Aquarium, and Flynn Theater, and not to be missed attractions. Middlebury is of course home to Middlebury College, one of the countries and regions finest liberal arts schools.

The house & property offer the 'best of both worlds' location. It retains a rural character, yet is only 8 miles from downtown Burlington, the state's largest city. The house has views of the Adirondack's and Camels Hump. Enjoy sunsets from the hot tub or roof top terrace.
