About This Home

Have you been searching for the Vermont farmhouse that truly feels like home? The one with the land, the barns, the mountain views, the wraparound driveway, the screened in porch, and the beautiful front porch where you can sit and enjoy quiet mornings and peaceful evenings? This is that home.
Situated on over 17 acres, this property offers not one but two barns, established fenced pastures, and the kind of setting that feels like a Vermont dream. Listen to the breeze move through the grass, watch the leaves change color in the fall, and enjoy the privacy and beauty that surround you.
Inside, you’ll find five bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with space that invites family dinners, holiday gatherings, and everyday moments that make a house feel special. The usable basement offers excellent storage, workshop potential, tool space, or room for tack and farm equipment.
Whether you have horses, farm animals, or simply want the charm and comfort of country living, this property offers the Vermont lifestyle so many people dream about.
This is more than a house it’s the feeling of finally coming home.
