Attention outdoor enthusiasts! Tucked near the top of the mountain on a quiet deadend dirt road with only one camp beyond, you'll discover the peace, privacy, and adventure that make Vermont so special. Meticulously maintained and custom built by the current owners, this exceptional Ward log home has been lovingly cared for since day one and is ready to welcome its next chapter. The thoughtfully designed living quarters above the impressive 2-story garage showcase quality craftsmanship throughout, featuring granite countertops, custom cherry cabinetry, central air conditioning with a smart thermostat, and a backup generator for year-round peace of mind. Being offered fully furnished, you can start enjoying your Vermont retreat from day one. The property's incredible outbuildings are just as impressive. A massive 30' x 40' three-story garage provides endless space for recreational vehicles, equipment, hobbies, or the ultimate workshop, while a separate bunkhouse offers comfortable accommodations for family and friends. Spanning more than 40 acres across both Wells and Middletown Springs, this remarkable property offers unmatched privacy and endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. Paperwork is already in place for a second access road into Middletown Springs, adding flexibility for future use. Once home to miles of ATV trails, the land could easily be restored into your own private network for ATV riding, hiking, hunting or simply exploring. Located in the Town of Wells, where there is no zoning, the possibilities are limited only by your imagination. Whether you envision a private mountain retreat, recreational paradise, family compound, or year-round home, this property is ready to make that vision a reality. Just minutes from the Village of Wells, Lake St. Catherine, the Slate Valley Mountain Bike Trails, only 30 minutes to Manchester, and less than an hour from several premier ski resorts, you'll enjoy four seasons of adventure right outside your door.
