About This Home
As of March 2025Sitting along the shore of Spectacle Pond you’ll find this spacious gambrel-style house. The property consists of 2 parcels totaling .37 acre with 347’ of water frontage. Built in 1986, the home features a new shingle roof and gutter system. Inside there’s great gathering spaces, especially the combined living and dining room that offers access to the 8x38’ screened porch. There’s also a double-sided bar between the kitchen and dining room, so even the cook can stay connected to the conversation. The main floor also includes a bedroom, full bath, and laundry room. Three bedrooms, an office, and a 3⁄4 bath are upstairs. The full basement offers plenty of storage for fishing gear, kayaks, bikes, and more. This is an ideal property for those who love to get outside, no matter the season. A 16’ aluminum dock is included, and fishing, boating, and swimming are steps away from the porch. Hiking trails are next door at Brighton State Park, while nearby Bluff Mountain offers a more vertical adventure. The fun doesn’t stop when the snow starts to fall, snowmobilers will appreciate having the VAST trails close by as they set out on the trails in the Snowmobile Capital of Vermont. Town amenities, shops, and eateries in the village of Island Pond are within a 5-minute drive. Plus, this community offers a variety of events that you won’t want to miss. If you’re searching for a waterfront property, put this one on your must-see list. Being sold as is.
