From colorful sunsets across the front field to mornings spent tending garden beds and apple trees, this 1830s farmhouse offers the kind of Vermont lifestyle that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Set on 10 acres with a blend of open land and woods, the property provides space to garden, explore, and enjoy the changing seasons while remaining less than 20 minutes from Gifford Medical Center, 10 minutes from I-89, and under 30 minutes from Montpelier.
A welcoming mudroom with slate floors serves as the everyday entry to the home, offering access to both the kitchen and back stairway. The kitchen blends old-world charm with practical functionality, featuring exposed beams and a Glenwood antique wood stove that reflects the character of the home's farmhouse roots. Bright natural light fills the living spaces throughout the day, creating an inviting atmosphere for everyday living and an ideal environment for indoor plants.
The flexible floor plan includes four bedrooms, an office, and the convenience of two bedrooms on the main level, providing options for guests, remote work, or one-level living. Remodeled bathrooms add modern comfort while preserving the home's warmth and character. Cold storage areas on both levels offer practical space for seasonal items, gardening supplies, and hobby storage.
Outside, established garden beds, apple trees, a chicken coop, and a small barn create a setting that invites a slower pace of life. Whether tending a summer garden, collecting fresh eggs, or simply enjoying the open lawn and wooded acreage, the property offers countless opportunities to connect with the outdoors and enjoy Vermont's changing seasons.
While rich in character, the property also offers practical modern amenities including a standing seam roof, EV charger, and ample storage space. Combining acreage, farmhouse charm, and convenience, this Brookfield property captures the essence of Vermont living.
