Shoreham pairs wide-open lake views with a thriving agricultural heartbeat, where apple trees stripe the hillsides and quiet roads lead to the water. Residents enjoy quick trips to Middlebury and Vergennes, plus a seasonal ferry from Larrabees Point to the grounds of Fort Ticonderoga for history, events, and scenic crossings. In Addison County, commutes are calm, the night skies are dark, and there’s a real sense that the landscape still sets the pace.
Families are served by the Addison Central School District, with Shoreham Elementary anchoring early grades and a pathway to strong middle and high school programs in nearby towns. Lifelong learning thrives too: lectures, arts, and athletics at Middlebury College are a short drive, giving residents university-level culture without big-city hassles.
Weekends fill easily: pick your own and sip house-pressed ciders at Champlain Orchards; sample grain-to-glass rye at the WhistlePig farm; cast a line on Lake Champlain; or trace early regional history at the Chimney Point State Historic Site. Town services, permits, and a busy community calendar are centralized on the Town of Shoreham site.
