Tucked among the trees and thoughtfully renovated throughout, this warm and inviting home offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and year-round access to Vermont's outdoor lifestyle. Vaulted pine ceilings, hardwood floors, a wood stove, and an updated kitchen with hickory cabinetry and butcher block countertops create an open, welcoming living space filled with natural light. Two comfortable bedrooms, an updated full bath, and flexible living spaces make the home equally suited for everyday living, hosting guests, or working remotely. Two detached one-car garages, one with a finished bonus room above, connected by an expansive catwalk, provides additional space for a home office, studio, or recreation room. Step outside to enjoy the expansive deck overlooking the fenced yard, unwind in the hot tub after a day on the trails, or gather around the fire pit beneath the pergola with family and friends. For outdoor enthusiasts, the Fred Johnson Wildlife Management Area is just moments away, offering easy access to hiking, hunting, and fishing. Mad River Glen & Sugarbush Resort are just 30 minutes away for some of Vermont's best skiing and snowboarding, while Cedar Knoll Country Club is only a 20-minute drive. Major improvements include a complete renovation in 2018, three mini-split heat pumps installed in 2022, partial roof replacements in 2023, an energy-efficient washer and dryer in 2025, and a new oil tank in 2026. Whether you're searching for a year-round residence or a peaceful getaway with convenient access to some of Vermont's best outdoor recreation, this move-in-ready home offers the perfect place to settle in and enjoy everything the area has to offer.
