Welcome to Kibbe Point, one of the most distinctive lakefront settings in South Hero, Vermont. Tucked among cedar trees at the end of a dead-end road, this seasonal Lake Champlain property offers 510 ft of shoreline and panoramic views stretching from the Green Mountains to Keeler Bay. With both sunrise and sunset views, this is a place to slow down and experience summer in the Islands. Set on 1.4 private acres, the property includes three seasonal cottages connected by winding paths through the trees, creating a private compound with space to gather while maintaining separation between each cottage. The 1950’s main cottage, “Rockhaven”, offers approximately 1,700 square feet with three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Full of vintage character, it features pine floors and walls, eclectic light fixtures, a brick fireplace, and an updated kitchen. A wraparound screened porch extends the living space and provides a peaceful place to relax among the cedars with glimpses of the lake. The two additional cottages each offer their own unique appeal. “Kibbe Cottage” includes one bedroom, a three-quarter bath, and a deck overlooking Lake Champlain. “Island View Cottage” is designed for relaxation, featuring a separate bedroom and half bath connected by a deck to a living area with a sauna, kitchenette, and views of the lake toward Kellogg Island. After a sauna, take a refreshing dip in the lake from the dock. The detached two car garage with a lean-to and storage provides a space for outdoor toys and equipment. The current owner occupies the main cottage while successfully renting the two guest cottages each summer, making this an appealing investment property with an established short-term rental history. Whether you're searching for a seasonal retreat, a multi-cottage compound, or Vermont real estate with income potential, this South Hero property offers a rare opportunity in one of the most desirable locations on Lake Champlain.
