About This Home
Tucked away on 20+ wooded acres, this 3-bed, 3-bath home is the kind of place you find when you're searching for real peace and quiet—and realize just how rare that really is. The house sits back from the road, surrounded by forest, open meadow, and its own private pond. Inside, the layout is wonderfully untraditional, with high ceilings, oversized windows, and cozy nooks that invite you to settle in and stay awhile.
The kitchen is a standout—flooded with natural light from skylights and framed by views of the forest and hummingbird feeders. Upstairs, a loft offers tree-level views that are nothing short of magical in the fall. Downstairs, a finished walkout level with large rooms creates plenty of space to stretch out—whether for guests, hobbies, or just breathing room.
There's a quiet here that's hard to put into words. Wildlife wanders through—turkeys, deer, and the occasional porcupine. Summer nights sparkle with fireflies. And if you're feeling adventurous, the property climbs all the way to a ridge bordering state forest land, where you'll find trails, a hidden pond, and stillness that goes on for miles.
A detached, oversized two story 2-car garage is powered, heated, and just waiting to become a guest suite, game room, studio, or workshop.
All this just 10 minutes from Lake Champlain. Whether you're looking for a retreat or a full-time residence, this property offers both space and soul.
Appointment only, no drive-bys please.
