Home for sale in Holland, Vermont. This property is located in a very rural community close to ATV and snowmobile trails, hiking and biking trails and pristine bodies of water for kayaking, canoeing and fishing. The property is mostly wooded and surrounded by farmland. This home was built and maintained by the same owner since 1992. It would make the perfect place to raise a family. There are 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 bathrooms, a bonus room above the garage that could be a 5th bedroom and a family room in the partially finished basement. There are two sources of heat-wood and oil- that can be used together or separately. The basement is large enough to hold enough wood for the winter. There is plenty of storage space on this property both in the home and in an outside storage shed. The hoop style greenhouse is a great place to start those plants for the spring garden. The pool and patio offer a great way to enjoy Vermont's beautiful summers. The spacious lawn area provides plenty of room for children and pets alike. The property has its own drilled well and 1000 gallon septic system. It is also generator ready should the need arise. Seller concessions are available towards buyers closing costs.
Some homes ask you to slow down. This one practically insists. Tucked into a peaceful setting in Holland, this newly completed home is equal parts rustic retreat and modern escape. Its story began with an older barn structure, relocated to its present setting in 2021 and thoughtfully expanded and rebuilt into something entirely its own. Completed in the fall of 2025, the result is a warm, character-filled space where natural wood, exposed beams and barn-inspired details meet clean lines, modern finishes and an open, airy layout. Never lived in and ready for its first chapter, the home feels refreshingly uncomplicated. The open main level brings the kitchen and living spaces together beneath locally milled tongue-and-groove cedar ceilings, while thoughtfully placed windows and glass doors fill the space with natural light and frame the surrounding landscape. A daybed area on the main level adds welcome flexibility and could easily serve as a first-floor sleeping space when needed. Upstairs, the bedroom feels tucked away beneath the roofline and is complemented by its own half bath. Outside, the experience may be the best part. Step away from the noise, settle in, and you'll quickly understand the appeal. It is remarkably peaceful here, surrounded by woods and wide-open Vermont scenery that make everyday life feel a little farther away. A weekend hideaway, creative retreat, second home or simply a right-sized place for someone who values character over square footage, this is the kind of property that doesn't fit neatly into a category, and that's precisely what makes it special. Come for the architecture. Stay for the quiet.
