95 Starboard Drive, Groton, VT 05046

There is something pretty special about living on Lake Groton, where the water outside your door is only the beginning of what surrounds you. Set along the shores of the 423-acre lake and within the incredible landscape of Groton State Forest, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath home puts boating, swimming, paddling, fishing, hiking, biking, and miles of outdoor recreation right into everyday life. The home itself has been thoughtfully updated within the last couple of years, including a new kitchen, new flooring, and fresh paint inside and out. The split-level layout offers plenty of room to spread out, with a spacious living room featuring a bay window overlooking the lake and built-in shelving. The dining area sits just off the updated kitchen, while the lower level adds a large family room centered around a brick fireplace. An enclosed porch provides another comfortable place to enjoy the setting, and plenty of interior storage plus an outdoor shed gives you room for lake gear, bikes, skis, and everything that tends to come with life here. Outside, a generous lawn leads toward the water, where a dock makes it easy to head out on the lake. The large lakeside deck gives you a front-row seat to the view, whether the lake is busy with boats and paddlers or completely still at the end of the day. And beyond your own shoreline is one of Vermont's great outdoor playgrounds. Groton State Forest encompasses more than 26,000 acres with seven state parks, eight lakes and ponds, hiking and multi-use trails, the Cross Vermont Trail, swimming, boating, fishing, horseback riding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and designated VAST snowmobile trails. This is a home that has been beautifully refreshed, in a setting that gives you a whole lot more than just a great view.
