About This Home

As of July 2018

Sited on a south facing hillside only 8 miles from West Brattleboro, 1/2 mile from the Guilford/Halifax line, this contemporary farmhouse was built in 2007 to replace a mid-1980s home that was destroyed by fire. For 38 years the current owners have created gardens, planted a small orchard (4 varied apple, 2 pear, 2 peach trees) raised sheep, chickens, pigs & beef and harvested mushrooms from their woods. Essentially they have created a manageable, country homestead with small, rustic animal barn and a separate storage shed with two carports. The house fire allowed them to replace their much loved, but under-built home with a new, energy efficient home, with open floor plan living room, dining area and kitchen, that incorporates many energy-saving features, like Pella windows, wet-spray cellulose & foam board insulation, efficient passive solar design, solar hot water, a multi-zone Buderus boiler and a centrally sited Jotul wood stove, that heats the house. The screened covered porch becomes their summer dining room. The small animal barn has gravity flow water from a spring and the sheep have direct access to fenced upper, pasture. This is a great property for a buyer who wants a newer, energy-efficient house in a setting that has been nurtured for many years. Halifax offers the voucher system for high school choice. Students can opt to attend Brattleboro High School or Twin Valley or apply the voucher to non-religious private schools.
