Everyday I wake up so grateful to see the view that I see out my window and to be living up here, Treat Williams quoted Vt. Magazine in2022.

This is just an incredible opportunity to own a house, garage and 81 acres all within walking distance to down town Castleton. The property has 1023 feet of road frontage, incredible views every where...Everyday I wake up so grateful to see the view that I see out my window and to be living up here, Treat Williams quoted Vt. Magazine in2022. He went on to say I don't have any fantasies of being somewhere else. I have everything I want and need in Vermont. The most beautiful place I have ever been! This is just an incredible opportunity to own a house, garage and 81 acres all within walking distance to down town Castleton. The property has 1023 feet of road frontage, incredible views every where you look, and zoned RR2A 2 acre zoning on Castleton's web site for endless possibilities. This could be a perfect property for animals has it has a lot of open fields or an investment for future development. The home was built in 1998, has a 3 bdrm septic design, and was built over the garage, which is now set up as an adorable apartment with two entrances, separate furnace and shared hot water. The other part of the home consists of one level living a bedroom w. a walk in closet, large mud/laundry room, a 3/4 and a 1/2 bath, open kitchen into the dining area and living room that has a beautiful window display that over looks the beautiful grounds and incredible views. The attached garage offers two bays and has a generator. In 2004 a 24 x 28 detached 2 bay garage with work shop was built. The garage is heated and has a large workshop and could be converted to a barn for animals. A gorgeous piece of Vermont!
