    What's special

    Woodstove adds warmthPrivate mountain settingDirect access outdoorsOpen living spacesComfortable single-level living
    Perched in a private mountain setting just minutes from Sugarbush & Mad River Glen, this mountain retreat & workshop compound captures the beauty, privacy, & lifestyle that make the Mad River Valley so special. Designed for comfortable single-level living, the home also features an exceptional heated workshop & garage that offers flexibility rarely found in residential properties. Radiant-heated concrete floors provide year-round warmth, while expansive windows frame breathtaking views of Mt. Ellen and fill the living spaces with natural light. The main level offers the primary suite with mountain views & private bath, open living spaces, kitchen, laundry, & direct access outdoors. A woodstove adds warmth after a day on the slopes, in the woods, or on the trails. Above, a loft provides flexible space for a studio, office, reading nook, or creative retreat. The oversized heated workshop & garage is a true standout, offering generous space for builders, artisans, outdoor enthusiasts, collectors, or anyone who values room to create, work, or store equipment. Peaceful, private, & remarkably quiet, the property has also proven successful as a short-term rental destination for visitors seeking an authentic Vermont experience. Surrounded by nature while remaining close to the Mad River Valley's recreation, dining, & community, this is a rare opportunity to own a distinctive property where exceptional views, modern comfort, privacy, & versatility come together in one unforgettable setting. Property is located less than 15 minutes from Waitsfield amenities, 10 miles from the base of Mt. Ellen, 4 miles from the Long Trail access at Burnt Rock, 3 miles to VAST trail access, and minutes from swimming holes on the Mad River. Within a 30-minute commute to Montpelier, an hour to Burlington's internation airport, and 30 minutes to all Waterbury has to offer.
