About This Home
As of November 2021Open the sliders to the bedroom balcony and listen to the West River flow by at night. Walk across the road and swim at your own private beach on the West River during the day. Balconies and skylights galore! This contemporary house, sitting on a beautiful spot on bucolic River Road, offers privacy and closeness to nature. Besides the balcony off the bedroom, there is a balcony off the living room. The wood stove in the living room provides charm as well as heat. The four-level design expands the feeling of space. The vaulted ceiling in the kitchen and dining room offers a bit of drama. The mudroom, entered on the basement level, allows a practical way to keep things clean. The seller just painted. The patio doors and sliders were replaced in 2018. The roof and skylights were replaced in 2017. Insulation was blown into crawl spaces in 2015. The seller, an award-winning author, wrote her best seller "Learning to Swim", while living in the house. Her second novel, "A Cold and Lonely Place", was written in the house as well. Newfane Village, registered as an historic landmark, offers a post office, library, hardware store, convenience store and 2 restaurants, in addition to an abundance of New England charm. The Riverbend Market 2 miles away offers 7 day access to groceries and gas. Only 2 minutes from the Village of Newfane and 15 minutes from Brattleboro, this is the perfect get-a-way or permanent residence. Home Warranty included.
