With over an acre of open land, mature trees, and forested surroundings, the setting is as serene as it is striking. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully refreshed, blending warmth with practicality. The kitchen is a standout—painted cabinetry in deep green tones, new hardware, and updated lighting all lend a modern farmhouse feel. Exposed wood and a striking repurposed barn beam—sourced from an 1800s structure—beautifully frame the transition into the cozy living room. Three spacious bedrooms on the main level are complemented by a fully updated full bath, featuring new vanity, fixtures, and a tiled tub/shower. A bonus finished sunroom adds flexible space for lounging, dining, or play—bathed in natural light and perfect year-round. Downstairs, a partially finished basement includes a second bathroom and room for storage, a workshop, or future finished living space. The exterior invites connection with the land. The home sits quietly off the road on a private, tree-lined driveway. An open backyard flows into field and forest—ideal for gardening, homesteading, or simply enjoying nature’s peace. Just minutes from local schools and a short drive to Enosburg and Jay Peak, this is the kind of place where you can truly slow down and stay awhile. New Propane Furnace being installed.
