Thoughtfully scaled yet rich in character, this three bedroom home offers a warm and inviting layout with pine floors, a living room anchored by a wood stove. Nearly the entire interior has been rebuilt with new Rockwool insulation and drywall, fresh paint, wide-plank pine flooring, all-new Marvin windows, solid wood exterior doors with PVD brass hardware, new interior doors with solid brass hardware, and antique glass ceiling fixtures throughout. The fully renovated kitchen blends craftsmanship and performance with reclaimed French terracotta tile flooring, an ILVE Italian gas range, IIO refrigerator, soapstone countertops with integrated sink, full wall tile backsplash, and a deVOL brass faucet with water filtration. The spacious bath has been completely renovated and features extensive tile work, a walk-in shower, enameled cast iron clawfoot tub, enameled cast iron sink, and solid brass hardware. Major system upgrades include all-new PEX plumbing, a new leach field with secondary pump tank, and a recently replaced furnace heat exchanger. Outdoors, perennial gardens, fruit trees, a vegetable garden, split rail fencing, fenced patio and garden area, pea gravel driveway and pathways, replaced exterior lighting, and a large stone firepit create inviting gathering spaces. An additional electrified outbuilding, currently used as an office and equipped with heat, offers flexible bonus space ideal for a studio, workspace, or creative retreat. A carport thoughtfully designed to resemble a classic covered bridge completes this distinctive Vermont property—small in size yet exceptional in quality, offering an authentic riverside setting close to village amenities and year-round recreation. This property is being offered partially furnished.
