About this House

Imagine turning off the main road as the canopy thickens, the drone of highway traffic fading into the quiet rustle of wind through northern hardwoods. Up on a gentle knoll surrounded by over two wooded acres, 292 Forest Mountain Road feels less like a house and more like a breath of fresh air. Morning here starts slowly. Coffee brews while sunlight filters through the trees, casting soft shadows across comfortable living spaces designed for easy, unpretentious living. Spring and summer bring lush green privacy, with plenty of room on the knoll to tuck in a vegetable garden, sip evening drinks outdoors, or simply listen to the forest. Autumn transforms the acreage into a front-row seat for southern Vermont's foliage, while winter brings that distinct, quiet magic, unloading ski gear after a day on the slopes at nearby Bromley or Stratton, stepping inside, and letting the day’s chill melt away. It’s the kind of retreat where Fridays mean shedding city schedules, picking up morning pastries at the local general store down the road, and letting days stretch out naturally. Whether you’re tinkering with projects in the detached garage with workshop, hosting friends for a long weekend, or spending a quiet afternoon with a good book, the home offers a warm, low maintenance haven that lets you focus on being here, not maintaining it. Property Details Setting: 2.25 private, wooded acres situated on a peaceful knoll Interior: 2,000 sq. ft. contemporary layout featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 baths Outbuildings: Detached workshop/garage with room for standard vehicles, hobby space, and mountain gear storage Location: Peru, VT, minutes to Bromley Mountain, Stratton Resort, Magic Mountain, and the shops and dining of Manchester

    "This is a children friendly community. Schools are good and there are many opportunities for outdoor activities for adults and children"
  • Leslie T.
    "living here requires a good vehicle. AWD is best and you will definitely need winter tires. Grocery stores are 10 miles away but there is a market about 2 miles away. Unless you work from home count on a drive to work."
  • Leslie T.
    "You will need a car, preferably an AWD with snow tires for the winter season. there aren't any services within walking distance. "
