309 Aldrich Farm Rd, Sharon, VT 05065

This 2010 reimagining of a farmhouse is set high on a hill with local mountain views close to Hanover and Dartmouth College. The turn-key, 3-bedroom, 4,900-square-foot home was designed by the crack team of architect George Hathorn and interior designer Ann Sargent, making it a welcoming, serene and highly functional home. Outdoor spaces, an important part of the narrative, include a screened-in three-season porch with a large fireplace, stone terrace, and multiple decks. Interior spaces include a well-appointed kitchen with custom cabinetry and soapstone counters, and a hip and elegant dining room with French doors to the stone terrace. The heart of the house is the two-story living room with its soaring ceiling that contributes a sense of volume and airiness to the space while grounded by the coziness of the fireplace. Off the living room is the coffered ceiling Master Bedroom with a large walk-in closet and Master Bath. Over the attached 3-bay garage is a spacious 2-bedroom guest apartment with an open floor plan, full kitchen, dining area and living room. It, also, has its own private deck and a proven rental track record. The property feels much bigger than its 10.8 acres of rolling meadows, stone walls and gardens because it abuts 700 acres of conserved land. 13 miles from Hanover, 18 miles from Woodstock and 25 miles from Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. Sharon is a school choice town for 9th-12th grades, options of Hanover High School and Sharon Academy.
