Handsome Vintage Westport Farmhouse on 2.87 Acres Near Lake Champlain. 4 BRS, 2 BA. Quiet country setting with perennial gardens, native shrubs and fruit trees. This historic, mid-19thc home boasts of a cozy, eat-in kitchen with original brick fireplace, a spacious and comfortable LR with freestanding electric fireplace, and a formal DR with a beautiful built-in china cabinet. There are 3 BRS and a full bath on the second floor of the main section of the house, as well as a large, privately-situated BR and den above the kitchen. Adjacent to the kitchen, there is a separate panty area as well as a laundry room with washer, dryer and sink, as well as plenty of floor to ceiling built-in storage cabinets. Off the LR, situated atop an unusual, 1-car, basement-level garage, is a private outdoor patio area shaded by age-old trees. Across the road from the house is a small barn in a meadow which, in the past, was used as a workshop. Garden areas, stone walls, mature shade trees and a small brook completes the peaceful country scene. Only a few miles north of Westport Village, minutes from local hiking trails and Lake Champlain. Well-kept older home with character and modern touches/amenities, reasonably priced at $399k. A Must See!
