This picturesque Vermont home is nestled on a gorgeous eastern facing slope with views of orchard from every window. The small town of Shoreham has a wide appeal because of it's proximity to Lake Champlain, miles and miles of awesome cycling roads, its short distance to the Town of Middlebury and easy navigation north to Burlington and south towards New York. This is what you picture when you envision your move to Vermont! The house features a master bedroom suite on the main living level as well as a generous front entry, custom kitchen with Verde marble countertops, dining room, south facing "sunroom" perfect for your greenery, and a large sunken living room with tons of built in shelving and a lovely Rumford fireplace. On the second floor you'll find two large bedrooms and a shared 3/4 bath. In the walkout basement there's a finished office with direct entry from the outside and plenty of storage in the unfinished side. In addition to the detached 3-car garage you have a large white barn. The barn has studio, workshop and storage space on the first level. On the second floor is a large open room, kitchen and 3/4 bath - perfect for a home office! All this sits on over 38 acres of land, 20 of which is planted in apple trees (Mac, Empire, Cortland, Macoun and Honey Crisp) which is cared for by a local, professional farmer.
