About This Home

Welcome to your private Vermont retreat on nearly 24 acres of open meadows, woods, and a pristine spring-fed pond. Tucked away in complete seclusion and surrounded by 500 acres of undeveloped maple forest, this peaceful property offers unrivaled privacy and natural beauty. The charming 3-bedroom home features hardwood floors, a cozy wood stove, and a beautifully renovated kitchen with granite counters and stainless steel appliances. Owned solar panels and a whole-house generator ensure energy efficiency and peace of mind. Outside, enjoy organic garden beds, fruit trees, berry bushes, and a clean swimming pond that’s been professionally maintained. A separate, fully plumbed outbuilding—currently a licensed commercial kitchen—offers flexible potential as a guest house, studio, or income opportunity. As a Sharon resident, you’ll also have access to the highly regarded Sharon Academy. Located just minutes from I-89 and the village of South Royalton, and 20 minutes to iconic Woodstock, this is the perfect blend of comfort, beauty, and independence. Back up offers encouraged.
