1163 Peaked Mountain Rd, Townshend, VT 05353

This warm and light-filled contemporary house in the hills of Townshend makes for a wonderful starter or vacation home. Enter into a mudroom with a Fisher wood stove, and continue to alarge open-plan living space. The wood interior and soft pine wood floors create warmth, while the open-concept design, neutral color palette and multitude of windows invite brightness. The large kitchen boasts a new stove and refrigerator for the family chef. The loft level contains two spacious bedrooms and another room that can be used as either living or sleeping space. A free-standing deck off the kitchen leads to a custom-built deck for a gazebo and a lovely water feature. A “sleeping” deck off the master bedroom is perfect for enjoying the night skies and beautiful Vermont evenings. A third deck from the living area leads to a large fenced-in backyard, perfect for animals and children to run around. Perennial flower gardens abound throughout the property, filled with lilies, columbines, butterfly bush, bee balm and thistles. In addition, an extensive vegetable garden has been cultivated and fenced, ready for you to harvest in abundance. The lower part of the property has been cleared and built up for animals, and includes a frost-free hydrant installed last fall. The property stands on a quiet road, ideal for walks. It is a beautiful spot for strolls in the woods, hunting or snowmobiling. It is also close to Grace Cottage Hospital and the Townshend schools.
