About This Home

Wake up to breathtaking views of Lake Champlain in this beautifully updated ranch, perfectly situated in the historic lakefront hamlet of Port Kent. From the moment you step inside, you'll be drawn to the bright, open living spaces and stunning lake views visible from nearly every room. Hardwood floors, expansive gathering areas, and an inviting layout. The spacious primary suite offers a private retreat with its own ensuite bathroom & closet. Additional 2-3 bedrooms and a second full bath provide space for everyone & flexibility for guests or a home office. The kitchen features sliding glass doors leading to a Trex deck with an outdoor dining area facing Lake Champlain--ideal for morning coffee, evening meals, or simply soaking in the scenery. An additional set of sliding glass doors opens from the fourth bedroom. Gather around the fire pit after a day on the lake, enjoy the large backyard or welcome visitors to the separate seasonal guest cottage. This is the kind of home that invites you to slow down, relax, and savor the incredible views--you simply won't want to leave. Most furniture & furnishings are negotiable, making moving a breeze! Updates completed include a new roof, spray foam insulation, new front and patio doors, updated flooring throughout much of the home, a new electric hot water tank, mini-splits for heating and air conditioning, a cozy propane fireplace, new kitchen appliances, fresh interior and exterior paint, underground wiring for an automatic mower, and aluminum gutters with eave protectors. Attached 2-car garage. Port Kent offers a sandy beach, boat launch, playground, tennis and basketball courts, Harmony Golf Course with its seasonal restaurant, and the Wickham Marsh Wildlife Management Area. With an easy commute to Plattsburgh and neighboring communities, this lakeside retreat is ideal as a year-round residence, vacation getaway, or place to gather with the people who matter most.
