Set on 4.5 private acres on a quiet dead-end road in the Essex-Westford School District, this charming post-and-beam Cape dates back to the 1840s and combines historic character with modern comfort. A job relocation is requiring us to offer our beloved Vermont home for rent for the first time after 25 wonderful years of living here.
Surrounded by mature trees, the property features apple trees, blueberry and raspberry bushes, established flower beds, and plenty of space for vegetable gardens. It's a peaceful setting where you can enjoy nature, privacy, and room to roam while still being conveniently located near Essex, Burlington, Williston, and St. Albans.
Inside, you'll find 2,000 square feet of comfortable living space with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The home has been thoughtfully renovated over the years while preserving its original charm. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, built-in cubbies, central vacuum and a cozy office nook with a butcher block desk. Spacious living areas and a wood stove create a warm, welcoming atmosphere throughout the seasons, complemented by efficient oil heat.
Additional features include a large storage shed with double doors, high-speed fiber optic internet availability, and access to the highly regarded Essex-Westford School District. School bus service is available.
If you're looking for a home with character, privacy, and a truly special setting, this property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy country living in one of Chittenden County's most desirable locations.
