About this home

This hidden gem is tucked neatly into the woods, yet less than 5 minute drive to downtown Brattleboro. It needs some love and attention but has great bones and a superb location. Magnificent spot for gardening, plenty of room to expand a flower and vegetable space. Beautiful wood flooring throughout, spacious bathrooms and good sized bedrooms. The original farmhouse retains many of its original features, and the addition features a large mudroom/laundry room as well as screened in porch. Don't wait, this won't last!

Rural Residential District

The Rural Residential District encompasses land primarily west of Interstate 91 that is rural in character but is relatively close to the developed areas of town and accessible from improved public roads, which has made these areas a suitable and attractive location for low-density residential development. This land is generally not served by municipal water and sewer, and extension of infrastructure into this district is discouraged. The purpose of this district is to provide opportunities for rural housing and to encourage thoughtful siting of new development in order to protect rural character, farmland, forestland, open space and important natural resources in accordance with the policies of the Brattleboro Town Plan.

Permitted uses

Agriculture
