Every one of us carries a dream of a place where imagination is free to grow. Sometimes it's the land, sometimes it's the building, and every once in a while, it's both. Tucked along East Hill in Plainfield, this little dream-come-true offers dark night skies scattered with stars, expansive views that stretch the soul, and a rare blend of yesterday's character with today's comforts. A little bit of the past, a little bit of the new, and a whole lot of possibility. The current owners began this dream with love and care, but life carried them in another direction before it could be fully realized. Stand on the hillside, take in the view, breath in the air and, and maybe, just maybe, you'll see it too; the wildflowers swaying in the meadow, the sun warm on your face, the quiet promise of a life built your way. The hard work has been done. What remains are open spaces waiting for your own aesthetic, your own story, your own dream. Come see where it takes you.

Bring a reasonable offer, your imagination, and a vision for what this 7.6 surveyed acre Vermont homestead could become. This is an opportunity for someone who wants land, room for animals, gardens, and a home they can finish to their own tastes. Underground electric runs from the road to the home. The building was thoughtfully positioned with windows designed to take advantage of passive solar. The cement floor already has lines in place for future radiant heat, and Roxul insulation was used in the construction. The home is currently heated by a wood stove. The property is a work in progress and will require additional finishing. Bring your ideas and make the remaining spaces your own, whether your vision leans toward a traditional Vermont farmhouse, a simple country retreat, or a working homestead. Outside, the land has already lived the homestead life. The property currently has poultry and has previously housed pigs, goats, sheep, and even peacocks. A frost free spigot makes watering animals and tending gardens easier. The land has proven productive for growing a variety of plants and vegetables, offering plenty of opportunity for gardens, seasonal crops, and a more self sufficient lifestyle. Located within easy reach of Montpelier and Orchard Valley Waldorf School, with high school choice and the flexibility of a town with no zoning. Bring your imagination, your plans, and your willingness to finish what has been started. A true Vermont homestead with 7.6 surveyed acres and plenty of room to make it your own.

Needs work, but this 3 bedroom home is in a cute neighborhood and is well worth the effort. Nice, traditional layout with an eat-in kitchen, living room, dining room, and full bathroom on the first floor. Upstairs has three bedrooms and a three-quarter bathroom. Why is this priced so affordably? Water filled the basement when a sump pump failed. As a safety precaution, power has been turned off, as has the water, and it is unknown if the heating system works. Possible freeze damage. Systems will not be turned on for inspections. Buyer responsible for due diligence.
