About this home
Sweeping mountain and meadow vistas from this adorable homestead allow an abundance of light to flow throughout. Open concept kitchen, dining and living rooms with hardwood flooring. Private spaces such as the first floor bedroom with year round sunroom could function as a den or office space. Upstairs the master has a spa bath with soaking tub and dressing nook. Two additional guest rooms share a Jack and Jill bath. Adorable mudroom with cubbies and hooks, first floor laundry/pantry, clean and dry basement for storage and then some. Secret bonus space over the garage for musicians, private office, or teen hangout. But the real gem is basking in the 7+ acres from the screened in porch or slate patio. Stone walls, stunning gardens with perennials, fruit trees, and raised beds - potting shed. All located on the Dorset/Manchester line close to fine dining, world class shopping, and a wealth of four season recreational opportunities.
