The 1994 well built and maintained 3-bedroom cape sits up high on +/-20 acres offering total privacy and views amidst beautiful plantings, gardens and open meadowland. The balance of the land (about 2/3) is gently sloping hardwoods with a grassy road leading down to and along the special and private 700+ feet of Mettowee River frontage… complete with campsite! The home is beautifully designed to take in the views with an eat-in kitchen opening to a cathedral ceiling living room with sliders to a large deck and 3 season porch. A ground floor primary bedroom and bath, formal dining room, entry foyer and second ¾ bath and laundry area finish off the first floor. The second floor offers 2 bedrooms and a 3/4 bath plus a separately accessed large art studio or office room. Other amenities include a spacious walk out basement (incredible potential here), insulated/heated 2 car garage, and wide plank floors throughout. Located just minutes from Granville for shopping; the Mettawee Community School, and Pawlet Village. School choice 7-12 and high-speed internet. A very special Vermont property at $649,500.
