Tucked away on a quiet dirt road, this spacious sunny south-facing home offers a peaceful retreat with sweeping views of the surrounding countryside. Step onto the expansive front deck and take in the stunning long-range scenery, including a picturesque pond just beyond the property—yours to enjoy without the upkeep. Inside, the home is open and inviting, with plenty of room to relax or entertain. The large finished basement provides valuable living space, ideal for a game room, media area, or accommodating guests. Recent improvements include a brand-new roof and a high-efficiency propane furnace, both installed just last year, offering modern comfort and peace of mind. Ideally located close to Okemo, plus Stratton, and Magic Mountain are just a short hop away; this property offers the perfect balance of privacy and accessibility. With Vast trails, dirt roads to roam on this is a heavenly location. Whether you're seeking a full-time residence or a weekend escape, this home welcomes you to experience the best of Vermont living.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
