Welcome to Your Private Vermont Sanctuary. Tucked away from the rush of the everyday world, this exceptional country?property offers the ultimate blend of privacy, rustic charm, and modern functionality. Originally built in 2000 and thoughtfully expanded in 2008, the main residence serves as a bright, airy haven designed for both peaceful living and effortless entertaining. At the heart of the home, a classic brick fireplace and hearth anchor a cozy living area. This space flows seamlessly into an impressive, sun-drenched 22’ x 26’ great room featuring ten large windows and dual sliders that open directly to an 11’ x 22’ deck. Enjoy quiet mornings on the spacious three-season enclosed porch, which overlooks handsomely crafted stone retaining walls, stunning perennial flower beds, and a sprawling, always-organic vegetable garden complete with established blueberry bushes and mature asparagus.
The home is finished in premium, double-stained cedar-shake siding, features a newer main roof (installed 2015), and includes an attached two-car garage neatly tucked underneath. The detached barn, just across the driveway, offers incredible flexibility for remote work, multi-generational living, or rental income:
1. An additional third garage bay.
2. A private, dedicated office space with a convenient half-bath.
3. A fully independent, legal 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment—perfect for guests, an in-law suite, or a steady income stream.
This is an Ideal Location, positioned perfectly to enjoy the best of Southern Vermont. You are just 10 minutes from the historic charm of Newfane, home to local favorites like The Fat Crow and the Newfane Inn, one of the most picturesque villages in the state. 20 Minutes from world-class skiing and riding at Mount Snow. 25 Minutes from the vibrant arts, culture, and dining scene of downtown Brattleboro. This isn't just a home; it's a quintessential Vermont retreat.
