Hinesburg, VT | 70 Shadow Lane

Nestled in Hinesburg’s Lake Iroquois enclave—where old summer cabins blossomed into full-time magic—this quirky cottage captures the spirit of endless summers, with water views that tug at your heart. Exposed beams stretch across the ceiling like a storyteller’s canvas, weaving a spell of nostalgia through every thoughtful detail. The main floor hums with sunlight, offering a bedroom, a darling half-bath, and a vibe that whispers barefoot adventures. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is a treehouse fantasy—perched among the treetops, it’s where you’ll wake to birdsong and lake glimmers—joined by a second bedroom and a full bath for lazy mornings. The second-story deck is your sunset haven, fireflies flickering as the lake mirrors the sky’s last glow. Sip your coffee on the sprawling deck, gazing over a lawn and gardens that burst with color like a painter’s dream, gather with friends around the firepit, or stroll to your deeded lake access for a dip in Iroquois’ glassy embrace. With a metal roof and vinyl siding, this gem shrugs off upkeep, leaving you free to chase summer forever. Hinesburg is Vermont magic at its finest—Lantman’s Market for fresh groceries, Hinesburgh Public House for farm-to-table bites, and Good Times Café for the best pizza around. Just 20 minutes from Lake Champlain’s shores and 15 minutes from Williston’s shopping, plus trails, top schools, and a tight-knit vibe, it’s your gateway to a life that feels like a getaway. Showings begin Saturday, 4/12.
