Peacham, VT | 24 Governor Mattocks Road

This exceptionally untouched, quintessential antique Vermont cape in pastoral Peacham is ready for its next chapter.

A beautiful vintage wood stove keeps the house warm and cozy on cool nights. If you are looking for history and a slower pace of life, this house is for you. The setting is out of a storybook, situated amongst the beautiful hills with ancient maples lining the dirt road. This is the house you've been waiting for.
