The abundance of windows in the residence...LAKE FAIRLEE - The waterfront site is spectacular! Located on the quiet eastern shore of unspoiled Lake Fairlee, this spacious log home enjoys unobstructed views across the water to distant mountains and summer sunsets. A private sandy beach and a private dock are only a few steps away from the residence for summer and winter recreation. Pack a lakeside picnic, sip a glass of wine on one of the screened porches, or just absorb the serenity of the setting. The abundance of windows in the residence bring in sunlight and fresh breezes. The floor plan is open and airy with a large great room boasting high ceilings and natural wood trim as the centerpiece of the first floor. The main bedroom suite is also on the main floor. Bring your morning coffee to one of the screened porches to greet the day, or jump off the dock for a morning dip before the family awakens. There is comfortable living space on all three floors, and almost every room has views of the lake. The lower level opens to a private deck and the beach beyond. A large game room and two more bedrooms and bath seem ideal for guests. This is a year round vacation home in an idyllic setting. Add a quaint, rustic cabin for work shop or studio and you will be in a Vermont lakeside paradise! All this is only a short drive to Hanover, NH, home of Dartmouth College, and a center for shopping, entertainment, and fine dining.
