For inquires contact: N.Laskovski@gmail.com (802) 552-0622 This late 1800s farmhouse has been completely renovated, from foundation to roof, over the last ten years with much of the work completed in the last 3 years. The charm and beauty of the original footprint was maintained and expanded on, but the modern updates are really what make this home stand out. With a massive energy retrofit and the addition of solar panels, you can operate this home at $0! for heat, electricity, hot water, air conditioning, and electric for an electric car. Coupled with energy conscious appliances, heavy insulation, new Harvey windows all around... this home is not only affordable to operate but very comfortable year round. The kitchen makeover added a family style island, slate and hardwood (ash) floors, and a beautiful, bright workspace perfect for entertaining and cooking. A high end Irish made Stanley wood cook stove can be used for heating, cooking, and baking. This home has excellent spaces that make it functional, beautiful, and very practical, making it feel and function larger than it is, without the costly side effects of a house too big. This includes a covered front porch, back deck and stone patio, mud room, dining room, downstairs office or 4th bedroom, large living room, three upstairs bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms (one up with shower, one down, with Jacuzzi tub/shower), well insulated and always dry basement, a 1 and half car garage with easily accessed full 2nd story storage, additional covered carport, attached wood storage and garden shed, a non daunting driveway (easy shoveling or minimal plowing), and a massive garden with beautiful and organically managed soil for optimal vegetable and flower growing, fruit trees (pear, plum, apple) and bushes (blueberries, gooseberries, raspberries, currants, elderberries, honeyberries, hazelnuts, and more), and even room for raising chickens. The backyard borders town owned property which includes baseball fields, volleyball fields, horseshoe pits, and a newly built (2018) playground for kids. The recreation fields and surrounding walking paths have limited foot traffic, are great for cross country skiing and extend from the backyard seamlessly. A stones throw from the Falls General Store (FGS), one of the best General Stores in Vermont well equipped with an awesome café, groceries, and a yoga studio. Walkable to four (of 6 in Northfield) covered bridges, which provide sweet options for swimming holes. Walk to the Northfield Falls post office, or catch the daily Northfield Commuter Bus to Montpelier right from FGSs front step. Montpelier is just a 10 minute drive up Route 12N. If you need a quick grocery store, Tops is just a one minute drive toward Northfield downtown, on 12S. Newly founded Carrier Coffee Roasters (Voted best coffee in Vermont in 2019!), Cornerstone Burger CO., and Good Measure Brewery are adding to the vibrancy of Northfield and make being a local very easy. This is a great home location for a Norwich University or Northfield employee or for someone working in Montpelier with easy access to Norwich University, I-89 North or South, a quick jaunt over to The Mad River Valley (via Moretown Moutain Rd) with access to Sugarbush or Mad River Glen ski areas. In our opinion, it's one of the best locations in Central Vermont. All the benefits of rural living with the convenience of multiple town centers and surprisingly many services within walking distance.
