Properties Near 229 Piney Woods Road Monkton, VT

Set on 116 acres of rolling Vermont countryside with sweeping views and frontage along Little Otter Creek, this well-equipped horse farm offers both functionality and future potential. Approximately 30 acres are fenced and ready for horses or livestock, complemented by an impressive barn featuring five oversized 2" hemlock stalls—built for durability—even accommodating larger breeds, along with five versatile lean-tos, a hayloft with capacity for up to 1,000 bales, a spacious paddock, and a dedicated mare-and-foal stall. Additional outbuildings include a large equipment garage and gardening shed. The updated 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home showcases a new kitchen with butcher block counters and a walk-in pantry, renovated baths, new flooring, fresh interior paint, a sun-filled wrap-around porch, and a walkout basement. A seller concession for kitchen appliances adds convenience, while a second permitted lot within the acreage offers valuable building potential. Ideally located in southern Monkton, just 10 minutes to Vergennes, 15 to Middlebury, and 45 to Burlington.

This home was originally built in 1999 by a respected local builder, and is privately situated on a 9.5 acre lot off a quiet, rural road. The current owners began extensive renovations in 2022, adding a new screened in porch, stone patios, covered entryways and exterior doors, master bath, kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, foam insulation, gas fireplaces, and mini splits for the second floor. The east entryway has benches and built-ins, leading to an open floor plan kitchen, living room, and dining room. Also on the first floor is a downstairs 3/4 bath, pantry, office space, and den. Up the curved staircase are a library sitting area, three bedrooms, and a lavish master bath with large shower and a soaking tub. The two other bedrooms share a full bathroom. The third floor insulated attic is accessed via a hidden spiral staircase and offers room for additional expansion, if needed. There are cherry floors upstairs, with a combination of cherry and tile floors on the first floor. A large pond has been added, great for swimming and sunset evenings by the fire pit. A 14 kW solar array has been situated away from the house, with two Tesla Powerwall batteries in the basement giving a total of 27kW of battery back up. There is EV charging in the garage, and the barn is wired for a second EV charger, if needed. Lastly, a 48x48' barn with a 10' garage door, insulated shop space, mini splits, 3-phase power, and covered exterior equipment storage was built in 2023.
