About this House

This meticulously maintained home shows pride of ownership and the original owner is selling after 38 years. This property has pure privacy with no homes in sight, but just minutes from all the local amenities and I-89. A three sided solarium offers the garden lover an option for year-round sun and the exterior raised beds surrounding the home will keep you busy in the summer months. The house offers one or two level living options with a master bedroom, master bath with jacuzzi tub and a shower, laundry/sewing room, kitchen and living all on the first floor. The kitchen offers twin sinks and a wrap around island with a working wood cook-stove in addition to a modern oven and country kitchen pantry. The wood stove in the living area will keep the chill off in the winter months and keep the utility bills low. The full basement has a workshop, storage area, and root cellar. The exterior of this home offers an enclosed screened porch and a detached garage connected by a covered porch. The garage has a carport and a woodshed with overhead storage. The 3 sided barn could be a great option for equipment storage or conversion to an animal barn. The area was protected from subdivision but that deed restriction has expired and additional development may be possible with state/town approval. If you love the outdoors you won't be disappointed as nature will roam in your backyard regularly. This home is weather tight and was built by well known local craftsmen. Located 6 min from I-89
