Description

If you love sitting on a private deck, taking in a beautiful country view, this charming Walden homestead may be what you've been looking for. The original part of this classic 'Vermont Style' house was built in 1988, then in 2013 a large addition and substantial renovations were completed on the whole property, including a new well and septic system. There are 3 bedrooms, a full bath with laundry, kitchen, and living/dining area on the main floor. Upstairs is a large private loft.

The original part of this classic 'Vermont Style' house was built in 1988, then in 2013 a large addition and substantial renovations were completed on the whole property, including a new well and septic system. There are 3 bedrooms, a full bath with laundry, kitchen, and living/dining area on the main floor. Upstairs is a large private loft. Half of the modern, full height concrete basement could easily be finished off and the framing for the windows is already there and waiting. The sprawling landscaped lawn slopes gently down to a private pond, perfect for swimming and relaxing. There is room for a party with every lawn game in town and then some. The balance of the 10 acre lot is forested, giving you a great place to walk in the woods or play logger. All the trees provide plenty of privacy in this quiet, rural location.
