Surrounded by the landscapes that inspired generations of artists in the former Cornish Art Colony, where grand old homes from another era keep watch, sits a homestead that has been lovingly and extensively restored by the current owners. The interior is a complete, custom renovation, with all the charm. It feels like the farmhouse you've been picturing for years: wide pine floors underfoot, post-and-beam bones overhead, and vertical nickel-gap shiplap that adds warmth and dimension. At the center of it all is a custom kitchen built around the idea that the best nights happen when everyone crowds in. Source a big farmhouse table for friends and family to gather around and let dinner take its time. One-level living comes easy with a main-floor bedroom and full bath, while upstairs two more bedrooms share a renovated bath with walk-in shower and claw-foot tub for long soaks. When the weather turns, the Jotul woodstove does what a woodstove should - pulls the whole house in close, while you watch the snow fall outside. The storied barn anchors the home's ell and welcomes you to the mudroom. Tucked away at the end of the ell is a simple studio space - a place that invites imagination, whether envisioned as a workshop, a creative haven, or private guest quarters apart from the main home. Outside, the landscape unfolds with a sense of abundance. Mornings begin on the covered deck with coffee in hand and the sound of the Blow-Me-Down Brook winding its way along the property's edge. On warm summer days, a beloved swimming hole offers a refreshing escape, while the historic Blow-Me-Down Covered Bridge stands as a timeless backdrop to daily life. For those drawn to hiking, the Top-of-the-World trails just up the road offer scenic views of Ascutney. A chicken coop, garden space, fruit trees, and acres of tillable field offer the opportunity to cultivate a more connected way of living.
