Description

Nestled high on a scenic hill with sweeping mountain views, this fully updated Johnson property offers the best of one-level living just minutes from the village. Recently remodeled with cosmetic upgrades and repairs, it feels fresh, inviting, and move-in ready. Backing up to Northern Vermont University land, enjoy peaceful walking and snowshoeing trails right from your backyard. The living room features a new Hearthstone wood stove that heats the home quickly and efficiently plus roughly 1/4 cord of firewood included. The kitchen offers stainless appliances, while the full bath with jetted tub serves the main living area. The spacious primary bedroom includes a half bath and abundant closet space, including a fun “secret passage” between rooms. A second entrance leads to a flexible area ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or a potential rental, offering an additional bedroom, a finished basement room, a full bath, and private exterior staircase access. The basement also includes a workshop with shelving and a utility sink. Outdoor features include established apples, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, grapes, mature rhubarb, wine arbors, and a fully fenced garden bed. Storage is plentiful with a two-car garage with built-ins, a tool shed, and an XL wired shed perfect for a studio or workshop. Located on a well-maintained road just off Main Street, with driveway plowing paid through the season, this property blends country living with nearby amenities!

    "The snow is a lot but the summer is worth it! Beautiful natural world and a great place to feel comfortable and safe. Access to town resources nearby are limited but Burlington is an hour drive away. A good place to make a peaceful home. Very accepting and open minded."

    "It is a very nice neighborhood, actually a college campus. Very clean. Nice people. The town is great!!"
  • Joe O.
    "Once your are outside of town, you are smack in rural Vermont, with exceptional views. It's a peaceful and quiet area, with lots of natural surroundings. The roads are not paved, but well maintained. The schools are great, and you are close to Johnson State College as well."
