About this home
From the moment you arrive, the gentle sound of the babbling brook captivates you. You quickly realize how magical this place is - a private oasis complete with croquet lawn and gardens overlooking the brook and embraced by woodlands. Beautiful stone steps and mature perennials invite you to the covered porch and main entry. Inside, you are warmly greeted by the cheerful, open floor plan, inviting you to explore. Once a charming one-room fishing cottage in the 1930's, it has awakened and grown to become a single-level contemporary year-round paradise. An unusual blend of old and new, it boasts gleaming hardwood floors in BR and DR areas, ceramic and marble tile in kitchen and baths and new BERBER carpet in the sun-filled 20 foot living room. Minutes to all the amenities of town, yet just a short walk to superb trails for hiking, snowshoeing or x-country skiing. Sunset Lake is just up the road - take a kayak or picnic and watch the loons. One owner is a Licensed Real Estate Broker.

Rural District
The Rural District encompasses land primarily in the western, upland portion of Brattleboro, which features large tracts of undeveloped woodlands, working farmland and very-low density residential development. This land is not served by municipal water and sewer or by roads that are capable of accommodating heavy traffic, and extending or upgrading infrastructure in this district is strongly discouraged. The purpose of this district is to protect these remote and relatively inaccessible rural lands from fragmentation, development and undue environmental disturbance by maintaining a very low-density settlement pattern and large tracts of working lands or natural areas in accordance with the policies of the Brattleboro Town Plan.
Directions: From Route 9 West Brattleboro, turn North on Sunset Lake Rd. Pass two driveways on the left. Pass Regina Vista on left. Next driveway on the left is for 198 & 200. Stay to the left (paved driveway) for 198.
