Inside, you'll discover wide pine floors, original built-ins, tall ceilings, spacious rooms, classic woodwork, and an inviting enclosed front porch perfect for morning coffee or watching the seasons change. Outside, a spacious covered porch, perennial gardens bloom throughout the property while the deep backyard and barn create an ideal setting for gardening, entertaining, or pursuing your favorite hobbies. Located in the heart of Chelsea, you'll enjoy the charm of village living while owning a true piece of Vermont history.
Chelsea is quintessential small town Vermont - Main Street is lined with century homes, a general store, a natural foods store, a dance hall, and the beautiful town green. Just up the hill on the paved road sits this immaculate country cape! Built in 2017 with great attention to detail, you won't find a home this fresh and new for miles around. The main level offers a comfortable open layout, first floor laundry, essential drop space at the door, a gleaming country kitchen with sparkling butcher block counters, tile backsplash, and an island perfect for entertaining and everyday use. A large full bathroom and a bedroom/office round out this beautiful first floor. Upstairs, you have another updated full bathroom, gigantic freshly-painted primary bedroom, and another bedroom with great built-ins and plenty of light. The full unfinished basement offers excellent storage and work space, and stays bone dry. Outside, you have a picturesque front porch to relax and entertain on, with raised garden beds on the lawn ready for next spring. The trickling stream out back is tranquil and soothing on this stunning property. Come make your home in Chelsea!
Somewhere between the rolling hills of Chelsea and the rest of the world, there exists a place that feels borrowed from Tolkien's imagination, a real-life Shire where the land is green, the air is clean, and time moves at the pace of a babbling brook. This five-acre oasis is the kind of property you don't find; you stumble upon it and wonder how it escaped everyone else. Mature maples stand like quiet sentinels, a working apple orchard offers its seasonal gifts, and a brook winds softly through the grounds, bucolic, unhurried, alive. The 1991-built home offers 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with a vaulted, skylit living room, a main-floor primary suite, and a generous kitchen and dining area that opens to a back deck and the woods beyond. Upstairs, a large landing for reading nook/office and a bedroom. Downstairs on the lower level you'll find another bedroom, bathroom and laundry with storage. The lower level walks out to the side yard for storage and access. A large detached shed offers space for the garden implements necessary to maintain your little apple orchard and the property at large. And unlike the Shire, this Eden comes with fiber optic internet, a standing seam roof, wood/oil combo boiler, and a whole-home generator. Even hobbits need WiFi. Your home. Your escape. Your Vermont.
