About This Home

As of December 2024

Multiple offers situation. No showings past Saturday evening. Among the picturesque vistas of the SW corner of Vermont is the historic Mooar Wright House. A congressional record posted in the dining room, signed by Barack and Bernie, recognizes this home as the oldest home in VT. A Salt Box by design and likely built by Dutch craftsmen in English style with fireplaces surrounding a central chimney. Historically relevant with original structure and layout, yet beautifully maintained. The kitchen boasts wide plank flooring, an open hearth with a Hearthstone wood stove, soapstone countertops and views to the side patio and perennial gardens. Hand hewn beams, brick nogging and worn thresholds add period character. An entrance off the rear garden offers the potential for a separated in-law suite or rental income. Edited perennial gardens with stacked stone borders romance the gazebo, rear patio and fire pit. The garage barn offers workshop space and a large bonus area above that seems perfect for a maker’s studio, man cave, play space, added storage or perhaps additional living quarters. Some say the soil in this region is ideal for gardening and the abundant vegetable beds by the garden shed stand as testament. This rare piece of history, with quick access to Williamstown, Bennington and New York awaits a new chapter. Home can be sold furnished * * Showings delayed to 10/3 open house.
