About this home

The expansive outdoor area invites relaxation and features a generous garden and greenhouse. New plumbing includes two kitchens, a wheelchair-accessible bathroom, and second laundry.

This charming farmhouse comfortably combines the old with the new. The first floor has a sunny and bright kitchen with a convenient center island, a breakfast nook and Vermont Castings woodstove. There is a formal dining room, a living room with another woodstove, a library and a den. Upstairs are four roomy bedrooms, an office and a bonus room. Hard and soft wood floors throughout. There are two decks off the back of the house as well as a traditional covered porch in the front--sitting there you have a view of the large post and beam barn and acres of pasture. The Buck Brook (which rumor has it is home to abundant "brookies" or brook trout) is one of the boundaries. The house sits on 20 acres in a peaceful, rural setting, but not far village centers. Great for keeping animals and gardening. Come and see!
