1202 VT Route 125, Ripton, VT 05766

Peace and tranquility overlooking the Middlebury River! Every once in a while a home comes on the market and when you walk through you can just feel the love - this is one of those homes! Having spent the last 40+ years in the caring community of Ripton, these homeowners are looking to downsize and let the next owner enjoy this slice of heaven. Built in the '70's the home is reminiscent of a typical ski chalet on the outside and functions traditionally inside and offers a birds eye view of the river, through the trees and onto a lovely parcel of land. Three outbuildings include a single car garage close to the house with lots of extra storage space, a woodshed along the driveway (you don't have to go too far to get a bundle of wood for the stove) and a detached two car garage at the driveway turn, also with lots of storage. On the main living level you'll find a mudroom entry, kitchen, dining room, living room (where the woodstove is centrally located) and a bathroom. Upstairs are two more bedrooms, one with a balcony/deck overlooking the yard to the river, and another bathroom. In the lower level, walkout basement are the utilities, a workshop, laundry, a third bedroom and a rec room with a slider out to the lower deck - who needs a Peloton with this view?! There's also a small building on the site that once functioned as a sauna - time to bring it back! Follow the written directions - Google maps and GPS will bring you elsewhere! Showings begin on Friday, April 9th.
