Grand Isle County’s lake access, gorgeous views and easy access to Interstate 89 draw homeowners from nearby Chittenden County, as well as vacation home buyers.

For two consecutive years, Grand Isle County’s residential sales have increased. Grand Isle has the fewest number of sales among all our four counties in northwestern Vermont, so sales data can be affected by just a single or few high-priced sales. With a 15% decline in newly listed homes since 2015, and demand still strong, the median sale price of a single-family home jumped by 10% to $250,000.

The number of newly listed single-family homes dipped by just more than 8%, while the number of units sold rose by 15 percent more than 2016, with 153 total single-family homes sold last year. South Hero posted a 40% increase in the median sale price, coupled with a 45% jump in the number of homes sold.
