Welcome to Brook Haven, a beautifully restored antique cottage that perfectly blends rustic charm with modern comfort. Set on 1.3 private acres bordered by the lively Mill Brook, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers a peaceful lifestyle with strong investment potential. Inside, rich pine floors, natural wood doors, and cozy spaces create a timeless atmosphere, while thoughtful upgrades — including a generous kitchen with shaker style cabinets and remodeled bath — ensure modern ease. Step outside to the covered porch & picket-fenced yard with a fire pit overlooking the brook, ideal for quiet evenings or entertaining guests. A big old Vermont red barn adds character & function with ample space and an EV charger! Significant recent updates include a composite slate roof, freshly painted exteriors on the home and barn, a regraded driveway, and a basement drainage system — ensuring long-term value and care. Ideally located just minutes from the Vermont Summer Horse Festival, Manchester’s shops and dining, and nearby ski resorts, Brook Haven makes an excellent primary home, vacation escape, or short-term rental.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
