Gather with family and friends on the covered timber-frame porch while the outdoor fireplace glows and the evening settles in. Built by Vermont Timber Frames and quality local tradespeople, the home showcases the best of Vermont craftsmanship. Wood harvested from the property and sourced throughout Vermont was used, giving the home a natural warmth and authentic Vermont character. The second level has a primary bedroom featuring large windows overlooking the views, along with a sleeping loft, two additional bedrooms, and a custom full bathroom. All three bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings that create an airy, open feel. The lower level adds gathering space with 10-foot ceilings, a family room, high-end Stuv woodstove, and flexible office space. This level opens directly to a covered porch, patio, and outdoor stone fireplace. Comfortable year-round living with mini-split heat pumps that provide central air conditioning/heat, along with radiant floor heat throughout the main & lower levels. This is a property rich in family history. The owners raised their children here, surrounded by horses and the freedom of country living. The land remains beautifully suited for horses and other farm animals, with fencing throughout the woodlands, meadows, and paddocks. The substantial timber-frame barn features horse stalls, a large second-level loft, a heated finished tack room, and plenty of possibilities, including conversion to a guest house. The 43 acres have two deeds. A State of VT Wastewater Permit is complete for one new system, and an area has already been identified for a second system. A true Vermont lifestyle crafted with local materials, surrounded by nature.
