There is a particular kind of quiet you find on Apple Hill Road. Set on 5.7+/- acres of mature woodland, this modern Calais cottage feels tucked away without feeling cut off. Coffee outside, trails through the woods, a pellet stove glowing on a winter evening. This is Vermont living with a decidedly modern update. Inside, the newly installed open kitchen pairs quartz countertops with a generous island, creating an easy gathering place for cooking, conversation, and slow Sunday mornings. The living room opens directly to the yard, while a pellet stove adds warmth and atmosphere when the snow starts falling. Upstairs, two spacious rooms offer flexibility for sleeping, working, creating, or simply spreading out, plus a large cedar-lined closet. The attached one-car garage adds storage now and potential for additional living space in the future. Behind the simple exterior is an impressive list of recent improvements. In 2024-2025, the property received a standing seam metal roof, new kitchen and 3/4 bath, tankless water heater, heat pump system with two mini-splits, radon mitigation system, 200-amp electrical service, and Generac whole-house propane generator. Spray foam and attic cellulose insulation were added in conjunction with Efficiency Vermont, helping make the home comfortable and energy efficient. And when you do feel like rejoining the world, Maple Corner Store is only about two miles away, with Montpelier and Barre within easy reach. A full-time home, Vermont getaway, creative retreat, or simply a quieter way to live. Come see how it feels.
There is a version of Vermont life people carry around in their heads for years before they find it: a house in the woods, a river running below the windows, and town still close enough to matter. This is that house. Hancock Brook spills over falls into a swimming hole that belongs to this property and no other, and the water stays in view from inside, green in July, gold in the trees by October, ice-edged and quiet by December. Southern light crosses the floors from morning through evening. The seasons turn in plain sight. This is one of the last houses before the Worcester woods and the 17,000 acres of C.C. Putnam State Forest begin. Where the trails run further than a person can go in a day. Out front, a short drive carries you to Worcester Village in 5 minutes and Montpelier in 15, work, groceries, dinner out, all of it near at hand. Inside, the updated kitchen is the heart of it: maple butcher block counters, updated appliances, and an open floor plan that pulls everyone into the same room. Three bedrooms, beautiful wood floors, windows sized for the view they hold. Metal roof, covered parking, wood stove, and propane forced-air heat. Much has been updated and will allow for years of warmth and comfort for years to come, without worry.
1850 Farmhouse Cape on 2 acres just a mile from Maple Corner. Substantial improvements include upgraded insulation, a standing seam roof, updated wiring and circuit breaker boxes, a 4 year old super efficient Buderus boiler, newer compression tank and electric water heater, and a new gravity fed mound septic system. Historic features include some wide plank flooring, original softwood and hardwood flooring, and some open beams. A mantle stands in the living room where a long-ago fireplace heated the house. Some vintage lighting and doors remain. Large, open, sun filled kitchen with stainless appliances adjacent to dining room with built-ins. Handy first-floor laundry room and remodeled first floor bath. Enclosed porch with lots of windows to let the sun shine in.

Attached garage alongside a carport features ample storage space and direct entry into home. Outside, discover a sugarhouse and detached tool shed, well-established maple trees, lilacs, peonies, rhododendrons, and an old apple tree that still produces. The 2-acre site has both open and wooded areas to explore and room for more gardens and wildlife habitat. One mile from Maple Corner Community Store, the Whammy Bar, and Curtis Pond, yet just 15 minutes to Montpelier. U-32 School System. The new price reflects the groovy wallpaper you may want to replace, wood floors that could shine with refinishing, along with cosmetic updates of your choosing to make it your own.
