This 3-bedroom home with a new 3 car garage sits on a quiet town maintained back road with an expansive deck overlooking a pond. The property is positioned in the North Hollow of the Green Mountains right next door to Rochester and is within a recreation area with a multitude of trails for hiking, biking, skiing, and backcountry exploring. There is a screened-in porch located off the wrap-around deck which leads to a mudroom with a large closet for your outdoor gear. The large eat-in kitchen has plenty of counter space and cabinetry and a breakfast bar that opens to a living room with a walk-up loft area. The living room has a cathedral ceiling, and large windows allowing for plenty of natural light. The loft includes 2 long rooms with sloping wood ceilings. The 3 bedrooms are located down the long hallway. The main bathroom is spacious and conveniently includes a laundry room with shelving for organization. The downstairs has a den area with a woodstove hook-up, hobby space, a half bath, and utility room. The den has a walkout under the deck with a patio area which is protected from rain. The home includes a standby generator for peace of mind, an updated electrical panel, a newer septic tank, and fiber-optic internet. The house and garage both have a standing seam metal roof. There is a storage shed towards the back of the property. The 3-car, fully insulated, heated garage was built just last fall and has stairs up to the second level which would make a great artist or game room. The yard has beautiful perennials and a fire pit to relax by. Call today for a private showing in this highly sought after school choice location!
