The five highest-priced home sales reported in Burlington & Champlain Valley, Vermont for the week ending October 25, 2026, came to a combined $9.415 million. Two of them were on the water in Grand Isle County, in Grand Isle and North Hero, and the other three were in Chittenden County.
Every one of the five is a two-story, four-bedroom single-family home. Beyond that they range widely, from a timber-frame home on a lakeshore peninsula to a log home on 12 acres, a 2018 contemporary with a pool, and a country property on more than ten acres.
No. 1 — $3,000,000 · 124 East Shore North, Grand Isle, Vermont
A private peninsula on Lake Champlain, with 658 feet of shoreline and a pebble beach along its north-facing edge, is the setting for the week’s top sale. The home at 124 East Shore North in Grand Isle sold for $3,000,000. A winding drive through maple and locust trees leads in, and oaks and cedars stand around the home, which looks out over the Inland Sea toward the Green Mountains.
The post-and-beam home, built in 2014, has a timber frame and cedar and clapboard siding outside. Inside, the great room rises to exposed timbers above reclaimed oak floors, with tall windows facing the lake and a wood-burning fireplace on a granite hearth. The kitchen is built around an eight-foot island, with cherry and maple cabinets, granite counters, Thermador appliances, a coffee bar and a pantry, and its farmhouse sink faces the view. A family room with a JΓΈtul wood stove is also on the main level, along with an office that can serve as a fourth bedroom.
Upstairs, the primary suite has its own bath and looks out over the water, and two more bedrooms share a full bath. The home has four bedrooms, three bathrooms and 3,268 square feet on 2.86 acres.

The full walkout lower level, with a workshop, has been insulated and partly framed but is otherwise unfinished. A detached three-car garage has a Level 2 charger and was designed so that an accessory dwelling unit could be added later.
