Experience a rare combination of lake, village, and ski, proximity in this stunning country estate. Located just down from Lake Raponda, outside the village of Wilmington, and a short drive to Mount Snow, on a quiet country road enshrouded by beautiful maple trees, sits this meticulously maintained country cape farmhouse, lovingly updated by the current owners. Wander up the serpentine drive and you'll immediately notice the beautiful grounds, restored stone walls, exposed natural ledge, and perennial gardens. At the home you feel perfectly serene, without having too much to maintain, but with utter privacy thanks to the adjacent buffer of land trust protected property. Inside you are treated to a lovely open concept floor plan with tremendous natural light and large oversized windows. There is an updated kitchen with Corian counters, island, walk in pantry, and breakfast table, a bright dining area, which leads into the cozy sittings areas with wide pine floors, natural exposed beams, updated gas fireplace, fully rebuilt chimney, and exposed brick hearth. Upstairs is a large primary suite with walk in closet and renovated tiled bath, two spacious guest rooms and a full guest bath, and additional finished loft ideal for overflow sleeping, loft space, or play area. There is also a large mudroom entry with ample storage, attached 2 car oversized garage, dual storage/garden shed, screened gazebo for outdoor dining, stone patio, water feature, and the list goes on.
