40 Maquam Shore RD Swanton, VT 05488

Beautiful Arts and Crafts home on western facing Maquam Shore. Immaculate property with so many fine touches. Feel a sense of peace and ease the moment you enter the home into the open entryway with grand stairway. The quarter-sawn white oak used throughout the house, including the hand-picked solid slab doors, flooring, all trim and cabinetry, which is in nearly every room, lends a consistency of quality rarely seen in modern homes. The spacious kitchen has room for all your chef tools and family members and looks out over the rear deck and lake. Large center island. Granite and marble countertops, of course. Hubbardton Forge light fixtures, Vermont's finest. Dining area with built-in hutch and living room with wood-burning fireplace also open to rear deck. First floor also has an office and a powder room. The second floor has three large bedrooms with ample closets, built-in dressers and each their own bathroom, Central air conditioning and Levolor blinds. The finished basement offers plenty of space for family activities or quiet retreat. Enjoy the blue water views of Lake Champlain from the rear full-width composite deck which overlooks the manicured lawn, planting beds and stone patios. Take in the glorious sunsets from the lakeside Pergola. There is a convenient, easy access cement boat ramp and wide stairway that leads gently to the lake. Store your lake toys in possibly the cutest outbuilding you've seen. This is truly a sublime, inspiring property.
