About This Home
Escape it all to this beautifully efficient exposed beam log home on over thirty five acres, twenty six or so added by the current owners. Better even, you'll abut the conserved 777 acre Windmill Hill Pinnacle Association with fabulous hiking trails including the Pinnacle Cabin you can book for overnight ridgeline trekking stays. Solar panels over the detached garage, leased Tesla Powerwalls for seamless power outage prevention, western moon and sunsets from your wrap around covered deck, two toasty woodstoves and a detached sauna to soothe you so you don't sweat the small stuff. Hyper fast internet with 325 Mbps down, 413 up so you can work remotely, if you must, surf the net to your heart's content or become a luddite and give it all up. Just 45 minutes from Stratton, this wonderful south eastern Vermont town has a whopping population of 380. Shopping in Bellows Falls, Grafton (cheddar!), Westminster, Putney & Walpole. Chester, Londonderry and Brattleboro for the big time. Amazing tree house in the canopy behind the house with a zipline for onsite adventure. Wildlife, recreation and southern, easily reachable Vermont on fantastic Old County Road. Traditional life, privacy, without losing all that's modern. VAST trail access less than two and a half miles north. Lister card states 3BR home; basement twin set of bunk beds are in the 3rd practical sleeping room. Sauna optional: Sellers would be happy to remove it if you prefer not to have it on site.
