5 + Bdrm Home Minutes to Downtown Burlington and UVM Campus

This 5+ bedroom home offers spectacular lake views and sunsets over Lake Champlain - minutes to everything by car or bike! Close to UVM and centrally located between Burlington, Shelburne and Charlotte, its Spear Street South Burlington location is perfect for alumni weekends, weddings and reunions with friends and family. The house offers bright rooms to gather, but is large enough to allow private office spaces to work and porches to relax with a good book.

Spear Street is minutes to popular wedding venues including Shelburne Farms and the Old Lantern Inn, a quick trip to Burlington breweries, and just a few miles to the lake. You can enjoy day trips to Stowe, explore the Lake Champlain Islands, take in all of Burlington area's shopping and dining or simply stay put enjoying this happy home.

Front and back stone patios with a wooden fire pit and barbecue grill offer everything you may need for stay at home evening activities. The front porch off of the master suite offers a gas fireplace for additional comfort on cool nights and a cozy ambiance while enjoying the many gorgeous sunsets over the lake. The backyard looks like a professional soccer field with a perfectly flat surface for playing kickball, soccer, lacrosse, flying kites and other fun family activities.

The spacious family, kitchen and dining area is absolutely beautiful for entertaining in and out of the house which provides an open flow from front to back patios.

Every bedroom has breathtaking views of the lake with three of the five bedrooms offering full private bathrooms. Two bedrooms share a hallway bathroom with the family room that converts into a bedroom with a comfy pull out couch. This is the "+" bedroom that could be called the 6th bedroom! Every bedroom has full linens, pillows and blankets plus Air Conditioning for your sleeping comfort

A large family hot tub is located off the family room overlooking the large private back yard for soaking your tired bones after a full day of activities. As a one level home, grandparents and those with sore knees will never have to navigate steep stairways in this house! You will absolutely love it with family and friends. You will enjoy this amazing home away from home experience just outside of Burlington, VT...The Queen City!

First Visit to our UVM Freshman
The property is amazing. Great everything. Lots of different space for entertaining or just hanging out. Beautiful views and perfect location. Just far enough to get out into a nice quiet setting, but, literally, minutes from everything the Burlington area offers. We were 2 families visiting our respective students for the weekend with a lot of coming and going, as well as big dinners with other friends from the area. EVERYONE loved the property and the house.

Fantastic!
Our multi-generational family of 10 had a wonderful stay on Spear St! The view of Lake Champlain is gorgeous at sunset. We enjoyed the 5 bedrooms to spread out and played hours of board games in the open family room and large dining area. The house was well appointed with extra pillows, towels, and soaps and incredibly clean! Highly recommend this home if you are looking to spend a week in Burlington! Thank you Deb!

A great summer stay!
I traveled to Burlington for a week-long vacation with my family of five adults and two significant others. The house was a perfect setting with some great views of the lake. With most everything within a quick 10 - 15-minute drive, everyone was satisfied with the abundance of activities in the area. The house and the Burlington, VT, area did not disappoint! And when we were unable to locate the bean bags for the available cornhole set, the host immediately arranged for overnight delivery of a replacement set even though we made it clear that was unnecessary. We were impressed.

This home is everything we could have hoped for and more. The house is spacious, comfortable, extremely well stocked, and sits on a beautiful piece of land. The view of the lake is breathtaking. We celebrated our daughter's graduation and couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting. We are already talking about when we can go back.

Gorgeous house with stunning lake view
This is a fantastic house, well laid out, with lots of space, minutes from downtown Burlington. It is easy to get to and fully loaded. It’s also a little bit atypical in that the house has definitely been lived in by a family before, so the furnishings and layout reflect this. It’s not just a rental property; it’s a true home. Absolutely gorgeous.

College Guys Reunion Trip
7 of us guys that graduated in 1990 from Birmingham-Southern College get together every year the week following Labor Day. We chose Burlington this year for the location. The house was spacious, great views of Lake Champlain, centrally located near downtown and just overall, great and just like the pictures. I would highly recommend.

Best house EVER!
I can't say enough good things about this house and the hosts. The layout is amazing and was perfect for our family of grandparents, adult children and young grandchildren. It is all on one floor with the heart of the house being a large open kitchen, dining and family room. Every bedroom has a view of the lake! Really! The hosts went out of their way to have a highchair available for our youngest. And the location was perfect when we were in town for a family wedding. from Mary & Rick

Wedding weekend extravaganza
We were at the house the week before the wedding and had many people in and out. The view from the property is stunning- and the house is so accommodating with 5 bedrooms and lots of room. Deb was so responsive with any hitch and she supplied me with lots of ideas for venues and restaurants before we came. This is a family home, with all the trimmings. You will feel welcome there! It is worth every penny- it was prefect !

Family vacation
We loved this house. The home had a wonderful view of Lake Champlain and the mountains. Convenient to a beach and breweries and only a short drive to downtown Burlington and Shelbourne. We had a minor glitch with an appliance and the hosts handled it immediately. They also went out of their way to supply a crib for a young one. Communication was excellent. The house had everything we needed. Sunsets were lovely sitting around the fire ring. I highly recommend this house Thanks to Deb and Andrew.
