About This Home

As of October 2021

Originally built in the 1820s, this post and beam barn was lovingly converted to a home in the early 2000s. Hand hewn beams, custom fireplaces constructed of the old stone foundation from the original homestead, cathedral ceilings, and glimpses of Lake Champlain are just a few things you will fall in love with on this 37.2 acre property perfectly situated on a corner lot in pastoral Shoreham. Enter through the main door to a large foyer grounded with wide pine floors which flows into two rooms - perfect for a first floor bedroom and nursery/office. The western side of the home features the great room with a soaring ceiling, sunken living room with stone fireplace, country kitchen with laundry closet, and 2 oversized sliding doors leading to the patio where you can relax and enjoy clear views of the Adirondacks and stunning sunsets over Lake Champlain. The second level offers a huge master bedroom with fireplace, walk-in closet and private bath as well as a loft area overlooking the living room. Outside, the 2 car garage with a finished area above offers a small kitchen and bath as well as another outbuilding complete the property. Have you been dreaming of owning your own orchard? With 10 acres of apple orchard, a hay meadow, and ample forest, this could be a diverse hobby farm. Not for you? You could continue the current lease on the orchard, the hay field is cut by a local farmer, and the trees take care of themselves!
