The renowned ''Hillcrest Inn and Carriage House'' is a truly unique property set atop one of Burlington's highest elevations. This stately mansion-formerly a charming bed and breakfast-offers exceptional character with its en-suite bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen, and expansive turn-of-the-century formal rooms. A covered stone porch on the main level overlooks the beautifully manicured grounds, while the second-floor balcony provides sweeping northwestern sunset views across the White River. The Carriage House serves as a valuable income-producing asset, featuring two updated units with private entrances-one on the main level and one upstairs. Each unit includes a full kitchen, private laundry, and generous parking. Set on over 3 acres with 40 feet of frontage on Echo Lake, the property!
