Tucked away at the end of a quiet country road near the well-known Pine Hollow Campground, this beautifully maintained Cape offers the peaceful Vermont setting you’ve been looking for without sacrificing comfort or quality. Well built by Blue Heron Construction, the home combines the warmth of a country property with thoughtful design, energy efficiency and exceptional craftsmanship throughout. Designed with flexibility in mind, the first floor offers true one-level living with a bedroom and full bath, along with comfortable living spaces and radiant floor heat. Upstairs you’ll find three additional bedrooms and two full baths, including a spacious primary ensuite with a walk-in closet. A custom layout and built-ins throughout the home provide an impressive amount of storage while adding character and functionality. The full, dry basement offers even more usable space, with plenty of room for a home gym, workshop, recreation area or additional storage. A dedicated laundry area with utility sink adds to the home’s practicality. Outside is where the country lifestyle really shines. Relax on the covered front porch, thoughtfully gated for pets, or gather around the fire pit on the outdoor patio. The level lot offers room to enjoy the outdoors, with a wooded border in the back creating additional privacy. A mini-barn style shed provides convenient storage for lawn equipment, outdoor gear and toys. With its wood siding and inviting Cape design, this home has the charm and relaxed feel of a country retreat while offering the quality and permanence of wood frame construction. Meticulously cared for, energy efficient and surrounded by a peaceful setting, this is a home designed to be enjoyed for years to come.
What a great find - this Cape will surprise you when you walk in to find 3 kinds of beautiful hardwood floors - ash, maple & cherry. Kitchen has tile counter tops & quality cabinets, a center island & pantry. A brick hearth in the living room is ready for your woodstove. First floor office or den w/ full bath & upstairs are 2 bedrooms, full bath & the Master Br w/ full bath. Large barn or workshop out back along with a small pond & deck that would suit an above ground pool very well. Nice country neighborhood location close to Bennington & Mass.
