Twenty five of these acres are across the road so even more privacy will be preserved. The rear porch leads you into the mud room which enters into the inviting new kitchen with updated appliances, spacious center island for prepping food, and an abundance of windows that allows full view of the partially fenced side yard.

Twenty five of these acres are across the road so even more privacy will be preserved. The rear porch leads you into the mud room which enters into the inviting new kitchen with updated appliances, spacious center island for prepping food, and an abundance of windows that allows full view of the partially fenced side yard. The soft wood floors were just refinished and are stunning. The kitchen opens into the formal dining room where you will find a recessed woodstove, and slate floored window alcove, the perfect place to read your favorite books. The front parlor has a wood burning fireplace and opens into the library. The balance of the first floor has a huge family/bedroom and full bath. The upstairs has a large central landing area with four cornered bedrooms, a full bathroom and large walk in closet. The basement has had the foam insulation and weather wrap for additional efficiency. The property has a detached 2 car garage, a whole house generator, a couple of outbuildings and a magnificent blend of open and wooded grounds, perfect for numerous ventures. Truly one of Vermont's hidden secrets. Time to call this one home!
