With some light tree clearing, the property is ideally suited for a self-contained camper to use as your recreational basecamp in the Champlain Islands. Featuring a wooded, level terrain, there is potential for development of a home with easy access to power, municipal water hookups, phone, TV & high-speed internet. Purchasers looking to make improvements will need to check with the local zoning department for improvement details due to the nature of the size of the lot. Wastewater per state regulations. While the area offers excellent features, like several nearby boat launches & public fishing locations, the real standout feature of this property is that it conveys with an optional membership to the Lake Champlain Property Owner’s Association. For only $100 per year, the membership offers access to a private boat launch, dock, & boathouse with privileges less than one mile away! Imagine enjoying the stunning views of the lake & VT mountain ridgelines from one of the many picnic tables on the boathouse lawn while your boat is docked – all without the commotion of a public launch. A right-of-way conveys over the privately-owned Lightning Road. Per seller, a road maintenance agreement exists, and there is a $250 annual road maintenance fee. Your dream recreational escape awaits!
