Property Description

An exceptional lakefront retreat offering privacy, recreation, thoughtful stewardship, and incredible future possibilities. Unlike many seasonal lake properties, the land here is OWNED, not leased. Four individual lots convey together, creating intriguing potential for a private family compound, wellness retreat, creative getaway, or cottage/tiny-home style enclave. Keep the existing waterfront camp as the heart of the property while exploring additional dwellings or guest spaces on the remaining lots, subject to permitting and approvals. Imagine gardens, yoga beneath the trees, gathering spaces, artist cabins, meditation areas, and days centered around the lake. Lots will not be sold separately. Proud recipients of a Lake Wise Award, the owners have thoughtfully maintained the property with lake health in mind. Features include a rain garden designed to capture and filter stormwater runoff and native shoreline plantings added to reduce erosion and protect water quality. The charming wood-lined cabin features handcrafted details and an inviting open layout designed for relaxation and entertaining. Enjoy indoor and outdoor dining, beautiful landscaping, and a spacious back porch where trees grow through the deck, providing natural shade and a unique connection to the landscape. A private dock puts Lake Carmi recreation right at your doorstep. Additional features include modern windows, a reliable heating source, drilled well, large concrete septic system, and easy paved-road access. Just 5 minutes from the Canadian border and approximately 20 minutes from St. Albans. Lake Carmi is entering an exciting new chapter following the major 2025 alum treatment, a significant water-quality initiative designed to improve the lake for swimming and recreation for years to come. More than a seasonal camp, this is an opportunity to create something truly special on one of northern Vermont's largest lakes.
