About This Home

Tucked away on a quiet, town-maintained dead-end dirt road, this inviting Rupert, Vermont property offers the kind of peaceful country setting that's becoming increasingly hard to find. Set on 6.79± acres, it's a place where morning walks, afternoon bike rides, and evenings under the stars can become part of everyday life.
At the heart of the property is a circa 1850 Greek Revival home, rich with architectural character and topped by a classic slate roof. A substantial steel barn offers exceptional space for hobbies, equipment, vehicles, a workshop, or the projects you've always wanted room to pursue.
Significant improvements have already been completed, including a new septic system, ductless mini-split heating and cooling, all new windows and exterior doors, a whole-house water filtration and softener system, an updated bathroom and a generator hookup. These investments provide a solid foundation while leaving room for the next owner to add their own vision.
Offered as-is and priced accordingly, the home presents an opportunity to complete additional improvements and finishing work while creating a property that reflects your own style and needs.
Conveniently located just 20 minutes from Dorset, 30 minutes from Manchester, and about an hour from Rutland, Bennington, and Saratoga Springs, you'll enjoy the tranquility of country living with easy access to shopping, dining, recreation, and cultural attractions.
If you're looking for a Vermont property with authentic character, open space, and the opportunity to make it your own, schedule your private showing today and experience all this special property has to offer. Interior photos will be forthcoming.
