Your lakeside escape awaits! Nestled along the shores of beautiful Lake Carmi, this charming seasonal cottage offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Vermont's natural beauty. Set on a spacious .44-acre lot, this unique property features two separate sides - each with 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, an open-concept kitchen and living area, and a private deck overlooking the sparkling water. Thoughtfully renovated in 2017, with updates including new electrical, plumbing, windows, doors, and insulation, this cottage is move-in ready for summer adventures and autumn retreats. A private well, added in 2014, ensures reliable water year-round, while JOTUL gas stoves extend the season with cozy spring and fall getaways. Designed for comfort, the cottage also boasts ceiling fans and wide overhangs that keep things cool on warm summer days. Step outside to your own slice of paradise-morning coffee, sunset dinners, and unforgettable gatherings await on the spacious back deck with panoramic lake views. Enjoy direct private access to Lake Carmi via a 5-foot right of way and included dock, perfect for boating, fishing, or simply floating the day away. Lovingly cared for by four generations, this property is more than a camp-it's a place where memories are made and traditions are built. Whether you're looking for a family getaway, a shared retreat with friends, or an investment opportunity, both sides can be sold furnished to make your transition effortless.
