About This Home

As of November 2021

COUNTRY COMFORT. This home will make you think of holiday gatherings, music, winter afternoons by the fire, breezy summer days, laughter, pets large and small, wild turkeys on the lawn . . . and a rich, slower pace of life. Yet this unique home has many up-to-date touches that make it a comfortable year-round residence, get-away, or hostelry. The abundant use of natural materials--including the flagstone entry, wood floors, brick-lined kitchen and cozy barn-board dining room--complements the bright, airy open plan with spaces that flow easily from one to another. A bedroom wing provides privacy for guests or a live-in relative; the master suite includes a generous sitting room and pine-paneled, long 4-season sunporch. Plenty of windows provide excellent natural light all day long. This house has it all: office space, studio, sunny library, parlor, gracious open gathering room for holidays, eat-in kitchen for breakfast, intimate dining room for family or guests, a long screened porch on the shady side for drinks and a distant view of the Green Mountains, and maker/hobby space. That’s not all: you also get usable large barns for animals or storage, 49 acres to ride or hike or birdwatch or ski, and close proximity to Middlebury and all its charms for dining and entertainment. Come see for yourself . . .
