About this home
Discover your private sanctuary in Chester, Vermont! This beautifully upgraded 1986 post-and-beam Saltbox is set on 5 serene, wooded acres, offering 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a versatile living space. Recent updates, totaling over $100k, include a renovated kitchen with new flooring, countertops, sink, faucet, and backsplash and updated bathrooms on 1st and 2nd floors. A new skylight will be installed by mid-October to brighten the mudroom. Outside, the property features a new front porch, freshly laid patio stones, and a Surpac driveway, creating an inviting and well-maintained exterior. Many trees have been removed to allow more light, and there are plenty of opportunities for raised beds and gardening. Exterior lighting and an awning enhance the outdoor space for evening enjoyment. The home also offers a finished living area and bathroom in the basement, perfect for guests or additional family space. The detached garage includes a small horse stall in the back, which is now used for winter storage but is ideal for various other needs. Located just 17 minutes from I-91, this peaceful retreat provides easy access to major routes while maintaining the privacy and seclusion of a woodland getaway. With Okemo, Magic Mountain, Bromley, and Stratton Ski Resorts just a short drive away, this home perfectly blends year-round tranquility and seasonal recreation.
