## Description

### Agent Description
Set along 250 feet of rare, sandy shoreline on Lake Champlain, this circa-1850 farmhouse offers a compelling blend of history, privacy, and highly usable waterfront--just moments from the center of Essex. Positioned on approximately two acres with broad lawns and mature trees, the property captures sweeping east-facing views across the lake to Vermont's Green Mountains. The 2,098-square-foot home has been thoughtfully updated, offering 4 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a formal dining room, sunlit office or library, and a screened porch overlooking the water. The layout is comfortable and functional, well suited for both everyday living and extended stays with friends, family and guests. The shoreline is a defining feature. A clean, gradual, sweeping, grassy lawn leads to a private sandy beach, a true rarity along this stretch of Lake Champlain. Combined with walkable access to Essex's shops, restaurants, marina, and ferry to Vermont, the setting offers both convenience and a strong sense of place. Well located for regional access, Essex is approximately 2 hours from Albany, 1 hour 45 minutes to Montreal, 4 hours to Boston, and 4 hours 45 minutes from New York City, with Amtrak service in nearby Westport just 10 miles south. A distinctive lakefront offering with the scale, setting, and accessibility to serve as a long-term Adirondack retreat.
