This is a property you'll want to see to fully appreciate. The house is sited on a park like lot, with distant mountain views, a small pond, garden space, grapevines and fruit trees. Tranquility abounds. The barn has a workshop and the garden area has a garden shed. The four bedroom home has historic charm, with beautifully detailed woodwork and trim, wide pine and maple floors, and antique heat grates. The cook stove has a firebox to warm you on chilly winter nights, and will keep your tea kettle simmering, with an electric oven and burners for today's convenience. While on your staycation, launch your boat at the state access, just 1.5 miles down the road, or take a scenic bike ride down to Button Bay State Park, the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum, or Basin Harbor, just down the road. Vergennes is only ten minutes away and you'll love coming home!
