Surrounded by lush perennial gardens and magnificent specimen maple trees and an extraordinary acre of mature pachysandra, the property offers a sense of peace and privacy that is increasingly hard to find. The welcoming living room is centered around a classic colonial fireplace and opens to a slate terrace overlooking established perennial gardens - an ideal place for relaxing or entertaining.

The exceptional grounds offer endless possibilities, including a detached barn with exciting guest cottage, studio, or workshop (subject to permits) potential, a colonial style potting shed and seven acres of picturesque land that provides privacy, beauty and room to explore. A home of exceptional warmth, character and timeless appeal in one of Southern Vermont's most coveted communities. Owner is a Vermont licensed Real Estate Agent.
