222 Raphael Rd, Waitsfield, VT 05673

Mountain top living with total privacy yet only 2 miles from the Waitsfield covered bridge. Imagine being able to see Sugarbush, Mt. Ellen, Mad River Glen and all the way north to Camel's Hump. This architect design built home has huge windows in all rooms, built around the views at all times of day and windows carefully chosen to draw the eye. Imagine incredible sunsets over the Green Mountains during dinner preparation in a handsome open kitchen with huge amounts of storage behind hand built cherry cabinets with granite counter top work spaces and fine stainless kitchen appliances. A two sided wood fireplace made of stone warms both the living room and dining room in cooler seasons. An enormous deck running from the screened in porch along the entire length of the house making seamless transitions from inside to sunshine in warmer weather. It offers a commanding view for miles over the valley in all seasons. It also gives access to a sturdy gas grill connected to the house propane. Below is an amazing family room complete with wet bar, pool table, and gathering couch for tv viewing. From there a sliding door leads out to a patio giving access to the hot tub and the flagstone steps to the in-ground pool. This property is a private mountain top resort, fun in all seasons offering privacy and convenience at once. Stone walls create garden spaces around patios, a truly elegant mountain home. Upstairs is a graceful master bedroom and three other bedrooms, all with long views.
