This wonderful Vermont Cape-style home is a peaceful hideaway with amazing views upriver towards Killington is within walking distance of Village shops, restaurants, and resort amenities. The home has overlooked the Ottauquechee River and the former Woodstock woolen mill since 1890. The old mill has long since been repurposed as a children's daycare center surrounded by community pools, basketball courts, and the Town's recreation center. On long summer days, the joyful sounds of children enjoying the wide sand beach and swimming holes float up from the river below. Over the years, the floor plan has been adapted on all three levels to modern lifestyles. The main level, entered from the garden walkway or garage, connects to an open country kitchen via a mudroom, which flows into the dining area and living room, offering extraordinary upriver views west toward Killington. A spacious main-floor primary bedroom with an en suite bath opens to a riverside deck, and an expanse of lawn and gardens surrounds the residence. Upstairs are two large bedrooms with a shared bath and a reading loft overlooking the living room below. The walkout lower level includes another bedroom, a bath, a recreation room, and a laundry. The home, like many in Woodstock Village, was damaged in August 2011 by Hurricane Irene. The property is not in the designated 100-Year floodplain that requires insurance. Irene was a FEMA-designated 500-year flood event that affected the basement; afterward, the owners replaced the lower-level sheetrock and the heating boiler and restored the riverbank.
