A rare opportunity to create your own legacy in idyllic Stowe.  This historically significant Village home remains virtually untouched and has been owned by only 4 families since it was built in 1846. Affectionately known as the Gale House, it has been in the same family  since 1916, over 100 years. 327 Maple is an authentic 4x2 bay Greek Revival clapboard building with c1925 wrap around porch, classic ell and detached c1855 barn overlooking an unobstructed view of Mount Mansfield. Set on the largest single family village lot of just over an acre, the possibilities are endless and the raw materials plentiful.  The systems in the compact classic 3BR/2BA home with attached 2 car garage, town water and sewer, along with newer windows, boiler and appliances, are in place.  Utilize this cozy and largely original home, while you let your imagination and creativity soar. With the adjacent unfinished ell measuring approx. 2000 sq ft on various levels, the possibilities are endless.  You'll find beautiful beams, wide board flooring, doors, hardware and other unique original features. The 2.5 story barn to the rear of the lot could be also be finished or restored and sits facing both Town of Stowe land and a magnificent Mansfield view. Sidewalk to town. Although shown on the Town Map flood plane in zone AE, a LOMA has been issued by FEMA excluding the area from the zone. A lot this size could accommodate up to 4 units with approvals.  This property is a true gem!
