Inside...Cozy Chalet with 27 acres and mountain view. Post & beam 32 x 40 barn with 4 stalls (potential for 6-8) for your animals or hobby needs, with hay loft above. Powered shed for storage/workshop and a run-in shed. Fenced pasture and small riding ring, surrounded by woods for year-round recreation, such as hiking, snowshoeing, ATV, or hunting. Set at the end of a private road, it's a convenient location between Bennington and Manchester just off Route 7A, yet feels incredibly rural and quiet. Inside there are 3 levels of finished space. Main floor has kitchen, living room with large stone wood-burning fireplace, and full tiled bathroom with tub/shower and laundry hook-up. Upstairs are two bedrooms with cathedral ceilings, one with a breathtaking view from a private balcony. Lower level bedroom or bonus room, with a walk-out to the slate patio. The wraparound deck soaks up the best features of this property, where you can watch the sunrise with a cup of coffee, admire the classic red barn, sprawling fields below, and sit in peace as the stars scatter across the night sky. Stretch your legs and enjoy the clean fresh air... whether this is your getaway from city life, or a primary residence like it has been for the owners for the past 20+ years. Has its own private septic system and a shared well with two neighboring homes (never had a shortage of supply). Newer architectural shingle roof. A well loved and maintained home that's ready for new owners. Live the dream!
