About This Property

Quintessential New England farmhouse. Dreaming of evenings beneath a big Vermont sky? Imagine fishing in your spring fed pond beside your wood fired sauna, with the Worcester Range rising beyond every apple tree. This exceptional property blends historic character, thoughtful craftsmanship, and modern comfort. Exposed wood beams, abundant built-ins, period details, and beautifully maintained finishes celebrate its farmhouse roots, while a brand new heating system, and standing seam roof offer contemporary ease. A sustainably built, fully permitted Accessory Dwelling features state of the art insulation and triple pane tilt and turn designer windows, with excellent potential for rental income. The ceilings soar high above the open concept living space with a private bedroom and bathroom. Two driveway access points add flexibility. Abundant paths meander through the meadow, around blueberry bushes, and up to a charming two story playhouse. A nearby trail network offers year round skiing, biking, and walking. Fieldstone patios create multiple places to take in the many vistas, while Curtis Pond and Maple Corner add to the quintessential Vermont setting. Inside, maple floors flow through the high traffic areas. The kitchen is positioned in the heart of the home, perfectly positioned between two staircases. This creates a thoughtful separation of the living, dining, and entry spaces from the private wing. Step onto the traditional farm porch and take in the view through a classic New England bay window, with a distinctive witch's window above. The home offers two full baths plus an additional office. Upstairs, a flexible floor plan places two bedrooms at each gable end, with connecting rooms ideal for an office, library, guest bedroom, or studio. Exposed beams, built-ins, and beautiful period details continue throughout. Lovingly maintained by its stewards, this is a rare blend of history, beauty, flexibility, and Vermont landscape.

From the moment you drive in to the property from the tree lined road, you feel the history and beauty of this well landscaped 1850s 4 bedroom, two bathroom Vermont post and beam cape. Situated on 5.89+/- acres with westerly views of the Worcester Mountain range, you will enjoy some of the best sunsets. The vibrant village of Maple Corner and peaceful Curtis Pond are just a mile up the road. An open field below a clump of trees served well as a horse pasture. Over the years, the current owners raised their family and added a standing seam metal roof (2019), fenced in garden, blueberry bushes, horse barn, sheep run, chicken coop, play house, storage shed, and sauna that sits above a frog pond. As you enter the home, there is a full length covered porch on what was an addition many years ago. From the mudroom, you enter a dining room with a wood stove. Off the laundry room is a big workshop/studio. A first floor office with a "secret" closet behind the book shelves offers high speed COMCAST/XFINITY internet with wi-fi. Add a booster for cell phone coverage. The kitchen has another dining area off to the side. The first floor is completed with a 3/4 bathroom and living room with another wood stove. The second floor is accessed by two stairwells and the bedrooms are on either side with an office area or playroom in between and another 3/4 bathroom with a tub. Replacement windows add efficiency. This inspiring home is ready for its next caretaker.
