Description

This handsom 1860 Colonial was the former home of the beloved Norman Rockwell. It is here on these grounds in his artist studio, which is now a guest house, that he painted some of his most famous artwork. Situated on the famed Battenkill River on 42 acres with a 1000 feet of river frontage, this is truly a one-of-a-kind retreat. The house has been tastefully renovated but maintains the character that an older home has to offer with pine floors, a large, formal living room with a marble fireplace...This handsom 1860 Colonial was the former home of the beloved Norman Rockwell. It is here on these grounds in his artist studio, which is now a guest house, that he painted some of his most famous artwork. Situated on the famed Battenkill River on 42 acres with a 1000 feet of river frontage, this is truly a one-of-a-kind retreat. The house has been tastefully renovated but maintains the character that an older home has to offer with pine floors, a large, formal living room with a marble fireplace , granite walkways and steps, and natural woodwork. A spacious kitchen opens to a large family room with a fieldstone fireplace, cathedral ceiling and natural hewn beams. The guest cottage is perfect for out of town company with a loft sleeping space, living area, kitchenette, fieldstone fireplace and a deck overlooking the river. Underneath the cottage is a two car heated garage. Fish, kayak, swim or just enjoy this peaceful, private setting - a true Vermont getaway!
