131 Happy Hill Rd, Norwich, VT 05055

Privacy abounds at this highly desirable Norwich location. Lovingly cared for by the original owner, this home is nestled on 16 acres of mostly wooded land with thoughtfully cleared space for lawn, gardens and even a small soccer pitch. The home’s first floor offers open kitchen and dining with granite countertops, hardwood floors, the convenience of a central woodstove for cozy winter days, a graciously sized, light filled living room, office, and first floor family room. The south side of the home has a full length deck for outdoor entertaining and relaxing with hot tub included. A screen porch adds to the options for comfortable living at this property. The second floor boasts three bedrooms, a full bath, and oversized family room with fireplace. Beyond the comfort and style of this home, there are a number of accessory buildings to note. A detached, two car garage with ample storage above, a garden/utility shed, and most notably, a 30 x 40 barn (previously used as a gymnastics space) to be used in a variety of ways. For the reactional enthusiast, the property affords the opportunity to hike, run, bike, snowshoe and XC ski right out your back door with access to a vast network of trails, including the Appalachian Trail and Tucker Trail. Only five minutes from the local general store Dan & Whit’s, and a few more to the bustle of downtown Hanover, this property is a welcome retreat to enjoy outdoor activities and the tranquility of Vermont life while being close to it all.
