Custom built and thoughtfully designed, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home sits on private acreage in a quiet country setting. From the moment you arrive, the land draws you in - a private pond, miles of trails for hiking, biking, ATV and off-road riding, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and hunting right out your door. The kind of peaceful surroundings that are increasingly hard to find in Vermont today. Inside, the open concept layout makes everyday living easy and comfortable. The large kitchen flows naturally into the living areas, creating a welcoming space for gathering and entertaining. First floor concrete floors with radiant heat keep the home warm and efficient through Vermont's cold months, backed by a combination wood and oil heating system and central vacuum. The first-floor primary bedroom with its own private full bathroom adds real convenience and long-term accessibility for buyers at every stage of life. Tucked directly below the home, the oversized 3-bay garage - also with radiant heat - is built for the serious hobbyist or car enthusiast, atop a foundation of 8-inch insulated concrete forms for strength and efficiency. An oversized door and car lift are already in place - ready for your collection, your projects, or whatever else you have in mind. Despite the privacy and acreage, you are never far from what you need. Northfield Village, Norwich University, and the Barre-Montpelier area are all an easy commute away. When the weekend calls for adventure, world-class skiing at the Mad River Valley is just 40 minutes out, and Stowe is roughly an hour away. With four full seasons of outdoor recreation right on the property, the Vermont lifestyle simply does not get much better than this. Properties offering this combination - custom built, private acreage, a private pond, a garage with a car lift, and miles of trails right out your door - truly do not come along very often. Schedule your private showing today. This one is a must-see.
