This custom home located toward the end of a dead-end road feels like it is deep in the woods, yet is just 6 miles from the Country Girl Diner, 13 miles from Okemo, and 9 miles from Weston’s Vermont Country Store. It's also close to VAST trails. A gourmet kitchen with a Blue Star 6-burner gas range with pot-filler faucet and commercial hood will entice you to cook for all your family gatherings. The spacious open plan main-level living room, with its brand new flooring and a toasty warm wood stove invites you to put your feet up and relax. Also on the main floor: a convenient laundry/bathroom combo, and a bonus room could be used for a bedroom or office. On the upper level there are 4 large bedrooms with fantastic storage and an ample primary suite-retreat with built-in closets, private deck, and tiled bathroom with Japanese soaking tub to relax in. While the living areas are spacious and comfortable, the impressive wrap-around porch with Trex materials is where you will want to spend all your time. Other outdoor spaces include a 12X22 blue stone patio, fire pit, 6 foot-deep pond, perennials, and above-ground swimming pool. Surrounded by 7 acres of open green space and forest, there is plenty of room to explore. With 10 foot high concrete walls & radiant heat in the floor, there is a surplus of room to create more living or playing space below the main level. In addition, the home is pre-wired for both a hot tub and generator.
