Newfane, VT | 7 Cross Street

This imaginative contemporary home seamlessly blends rustic charm with modern living. Originally a small camp, the home was thoughtfully recrafted in the early 1970s by Attila Zoller, the world-famous jazz guitarist who hosted workshops right here on Wiswall Hill until founding the world-renowned Vermont Jazz Center in 1985. Set on 9.5 private, picturesque acres framed by historic stone walls, lush landscaping, and peaceful mixed woodland, this property offers authentic Vermont countryside living just 2.4 miles from historic Newfane Village. Inside, the sun-drenched floor plan features warm pine flooring, exposed beams, and a dramatic cathedral ceiling. Designed for effortless entertaining, the interior offers expansive living spaces, a large primary en suite, and 3 bedrooms, all with versatile lofts ideal for extra sleeping quarters, home offices, or creative studios. Step outside onto the generous decks and covered porches to soak in the tranquil natural surroundings. With its exceptional jazz provenance and natural beauty, this rare property serves equally well as a primary residence or a quintessential mountain getaway - just minutes from Newfane Village hot spots like The Fat Crow, Fayetteville Antiques, and The Four Columns Inn, and only 2.5 hours from Boston. Seller must find suitable housing. A new septic system is being installed in November. Open House: Saturday, November 7th, 2026 from 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM.

It also includes a large bonus room with its own egress, perfect for a mudroom, office, studio, or playroom. The second floor offers two additional bedrooms, a unique bathroom, and a large attic space with great potential to be finished. Outside, the yard boasts beautiful stonework and plenty of flat, green space for gardening or activities.
