About this House

This five-bedroom, 2.5 story, custom built colonial in Barre Town sits back from the road on a 1.75-acre lot. The location is convenient and yet private, the best of both worlds! This property comes fully loaded with too many features to mention here so be sure to check out the Property Highlights handout attached to the listing. This home is energy efficient and rated 5+ STARS! This house is also environmentally friendly, soaking up the sun to power the house. Charge an electric vehicle with the ChargePoint charger in the attached, oversized, 3-car garage. No need to fear power outages or loud generators thanks to the Tesla Power Wall. The first floor, heated slab is a work of art. It was hand painted and then epoxied. It catches the light from different areas of the home and seems to almost change color as you make your way around the first floor. The first-floor features 9-foot ceilings, a large kitchen with quartz countertops and modern appliances, a half bath, dining area, living room with a luxury fireplace, and Master Bedroom with dual walk-in closets and En Suite. The property boasts first floor and second floor laundry. The second floor houses an additional 4 bedrooms and a full bath. The third floor is a story and is partially finished. Other perks, in no particular order: central vac, security system onsite, full length covered porch, tree house with 120 ft zipline... oh and did you see the built-in doghouse by the fireplace?! Adorable! Come check out this gem

    "I don’t know. I’m sure they would like it. Barre seems to be a dog friendly place. Dog ownership is the least of your worries in Barre. The city is literally crumbling. "

  • Jen74
    "The home is only 10 years old, we are non-smokers and my back yard abuts a radio station. It is fully wooded and will never be developed. Also, neither of my neighbors are junky and the only foot traffic are the kids riding their bikes and neighbors walking their dogs. "
