Curb appeal always draws as this stately C.1791 Colonial captivates interest in its refinement and restored expanse. All of the 10 level pastoral acres graciously embrace the Vermont Tradition surrounded by 360 degree mountain hollow views. There's old growth trees and wide stone walled gardens greeting guests upon approach. Enter through the wide center hall with a simple staircase as the front to back living room is to the left, the architectural details are evident, from the raised paneled fireplace offering a beautiful "key" style mantle, a library alcove at one end and the extended deep & private side porch beyond. To the right a lovey study with powder room. Across the back of the center hall one enters the elegantly preserved dining room boasting wide beaded panels, chair rail and receded cupboard. Original main level wide board flooring is found throughout the original structure. As time expanded the "back house", a sunny kitchen wing evolved wrapped around the raised hearth fireplace which can easily open to the original dining room creating "great room" appeal. The side entrance offers a spacious sense with very practical storage for household needs. The front and rear staircases lead to 5 comfortable en-suite bedrooms offering marble baths. Off the kitchen there's an office w direct access garden shed inspiring an herb garden. Oversized 2 car garage. The privately sited heated pool & cabana patio is a Dorset Hollow Splendor!
