About This Home

As of October 2024

Beautiful 4-bedroom, 2 1⁄2 bathroom home in Pownal VT on 45 acres, with mountain views. Private retreat, with fiber optic internet available to keep you connected to the world when you want to be. Walk in through the attached single car garage, and you'll find a mud room leading into a lower level with living area, hot tub room, 3/4 bathroom, and plenty of storage. There's also a mechanical room that houses the 200-amp electrical panel, heat pump hot water heater, and Tesla wall – a home battery that stores power from the solar panels on the roof. Walk upstairs to the main floor where you'll find the open kitchen/dining area (with an enclosed sun porch off the kitchen that leads to the front deck), a large living room with vaulted ceilings and stone fireplace, with a second deck off the living room. There's also a bedroom, laundry room, half bath for guests, as well as a bonus room that could be used as an office. Finally, the top floor includes 3 bedrooms, another full bath with tub, and more storage. Also on the property are a wood shed, built in 2014, and another a 600+ square foot studio to bring our your creativity, or finish into a guest house.
