Experience the best of Vermont living in this Salisbury country home, perfectly suited to capture sweeping, long-range mountain views. Set on 18 acres, the land gently descends to the Middlebury River, providing private access for fishing and the calming sound of flowing water. Designed with versatility in mind, the home functions beautifully as a spacious single-family residence or a multi-family property. Inside, an expansive living room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace creates a warm gathering space, while the well-appointed kitchen features a gas range, wall oven, granite and stainless-steel countertops, and custom cabinetry. Pine and tile flooring throughout much of the home add natural warmth and character. Each bedroom includes its own private bathroom, with two bedrooms further enhanced by cozy gas fireplaces and mini-splits for added comfort. A generous loft-complete with its own bathroom-offers flexible space for guests, creative work, or a studio. The property's amenities extend beyond the home: a horse barn with pasture and a detached, insulated 31' x 70' workshop-heated by an oil boiler and equipped with a 10' x 10' overhead door-provide exceptional opportunities for hobbies, storage, or professional use.  Thoughtfully renovated with custom finishes throughout, this contemporary country retreat offers privacy and tranquility just 10 minutes from downtown Middlebury-an ideal blend of comfort, convenience, and Vermont charm.  (See MLS # 5072769 land)
