About This Home
WORKING MARINA ON LAKE CHAMPLAIN. This property includes 13.18 acres, a 2021 sq. ft. ranch style 2 bedroom, 1 3/4 baths and attached 1 car garage built in 1970 and so much more... your very own boat launch, 68 docks, with State permits for 10 additional docks, three permitted campsites, and waterfront cottage with kitchenette and restroom facilities for your lakefront parties and enjoyment. Marine repair garage, pavilion and equipment listed in the documents will go with the sale. Lots of potential for increased revenue. Just imagine working seven months of the year in Vermont surrounded by water, sun, mountains, sunsets over the lake and fresh air! This is your opportunity to escape the hustle and bustle of this crazy world and find yourself experiencing relaxation at the end of a day's work. The sellers have transformed this property to what it is today since 1986 and have decided it's time to retire. A rewarding opportunity for someone who wants to put in the work and time to carry the opportunity forward.
