Property Description

With 200 feet of private Lake Champlain waterfront, sweeping views of the Green Mountains, and 11.9 acres of secluded land, 70 Wash Board Way offers a rare opportunity to own a private cliffside retreat in one of the Adirondack Coast's most scenic settings, complete with direct waterfront access and a private dock. Positioned above the shoreline, this cedar-shingled home was thoughtfully designed to take full advantage of its remarkable setting. Large windows throughout the living and dining areas frame panoramic lake and mountain views, creating a constant connection to the landscape. The primary suite features an ensuite bath and private porch, an ideal place to enjoy a morning coffee while watching the sun rise over the Green Mountains. The home offers comfortable accommodations for family and guests with two additional bedrooms, a shared bath, generous outdoor living space, and inviting gathering areas centered around a wood stove and fireplace. Whether enjoying a summer evening on the deck or a quiet winter weekend by the fire, the property offers a sense of comfort and seclusion in every season. Outside, a staircase leads to the waterfront where a concrete lakeside sitting area and adjustable cantilever dock provide easy access to swimming, boating, fishing, and life on the lake. A detached garage and pole barn offer excellent storage for boats, recreational equipment, and outdoor gear. Beyond its appeal as a private residence, the property presents exceptional flexibility. A stand of maple trees is already being tapped for sugaring, while open field areas create opportunities for hobby farming, recreation, or future enhancements. Offered fully furnished, the property is ready to be enjoyed immediately as a year-round home, seasonal getaway, short-term rental, or a combination of all three. Conveniently located just minutes from Westport, Camp Dudley, and Interstate 87, the property provides easy access to the Adirondacks, Vermont, and the Lake Champlain
