Tucked into South Cove, a secluded neighborhood bordered by Lake Champlain, Red Rocks Park, and Oakledge Park, this completely remodeled home pairs move-in-ready condition with one of Burlington's most private settings. As part of the South Cove Association, homeowners co-own a 0.8-acre lakefront parcel with a private beach and boat ramp reserved exclusively for the neighborhood, and many residents moor their boats in the cove. Inside, the main level features cherry, oak, and walnut hardwood floors and Hubbardton Forge fixtures throughout. An expansive kitchen anchors the main level, with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, an 11-foot center island, a prep sink on its own run of counter, stainless appliances, and radiant heat flooring underfoot. A sun-filled dining area flows into a three-season sunroom and a private backyard. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a lake view and a renovated spa-like bath. Three bedrooms and a dedicated home office provide flexibility for family, guests, and remote work. Both upstairs bathrooms have been remodeled, including a fully new guest bath completed in 2025. Recent improvements include a new roof (2024), Marvin Signature Ultimate windows throughout most of the home (2021), a bluestone front walkway (2023), and custom-fit Hunter Douglas Duette shades. The dry, unfinished 1,351-square-foot basement includes a workshop and offers substantial storage and future finishing potential. Outside, a spacious yard offers room to garden, play, or entertain, with a large bluestone patio and mature trees, complemented by an attached garage and strong curb appeal. Despite its secluded feel, the home is just minutes from downtown Burlington, I-89, the Burlington Bike Path, UVM Medical Center, and waterfront recreation, offering a rare combination of privacy, thoughtful renovation, lake access, and convenience in one of Burlington’s most desirable neighborhoods.
