About This Home

As of February 2018

This is the rare find of a classic Vermont farm property: An historic (updated) cape residence with newer open concept kitchen, post and beam barns, nice tillable land for gardens, pond, 2000 feet of frontage on the North Branch of the Black River, approx. 20 acre woodlot ready for harvesting, but short driveway to paved Tyson Rd/VT 106 for easy access. The newer kitchen boasts a downdraft gas range-top, soapstone farmsink and counters, bar sink, eat-up bar-island, stainless steel appliances. Enjoy the views and the sound of the river from either the deck or a covered terrace porch. Pick apples from abundantly producing trees or enjoy picking flowers from the perennial gardens around the house and barns, fly fish for trout in the Black River running through the property, or swim in your own private pond - this property has it all!
