Property Description

Cedar Farm is a one-of-kind historic, fourteen-acre farmhouse waterfront estate with over 700 feet of shoreline on Lake Champlain, surrounded by expansive rolling lawns, meadows, fruit trees and lush gardens. Cedar Farm is protected on all sides from development so the enchantment, privacy, and uninterrupted views that make this property so special will never be diluted.  

Features And Amenities

The magnificent main house was built in 1789 with stone walls three feet thick, eight fireplaces, and 12-over-12 wood windows, yet this historic gem has been lovingly updated with 21st century comforts and amenities. The stone was hauled from Fort Ticonderoga on ice-sleds to build the 17-room, 5,680 square foot, eight bedroom, seven bath main residence. There is also an attached three-bedroom, three-bath caretaker/guest wing, a wine cellar, formal dining room and eight working, wood-burning fireplaces. Other notable features of the main house include a screened-in porch off of the chef's kitchen, a cozy den with the original fireplace and a bright and airy private master suite on the second level.

A complex of barns, a free-standing, wood-paneled tower great for reading a good book, and a fabulous clapboard playhouse built around a massive oak tree comprise the outbuildings. Out amid the expansive estate country grounds, thick stone walls edge the organic raised gardens and the velvet green lawns that run all the way down to Lake Champlain. A footbridge crosses a pond to a small island and a stone fire-pit.

Cedar Farm is located in the vibrant town of Charlotte known for its great schools, general store and recreational offerings. The excellent shopping, cuisine, theaters and colleges of Burlington are only twenty minutes away, Vermont's world-class ski mountains are a short drive away to the east, and sophisticated, French-speaking Montreal is close enough for a fabulous romantic or family night away just an hour to the north.
