You'll be delighted by the bright, open spaces and attention to detail throughout this custom-designed and built 2-story post & beam home. The natural wood siding gives a rustic look to the exterior, while the interior features stylish finishes with rustic accents. Creamy white traditional-style cabinets paired with a subway tile backsplash, granite counters, stainless appliances, and modern industrial light fixtures are a surprising blend that works with the exposed beams to create a modern-day farmhouse kitchen. The open layout flows past the French doors to the dining area and living room, with radiant heated tile floors throughout. A bedroom, ¾ bath and laundry room complete the main floor. At the top of the stairs is a large, open space well-suited as a lounge area, rec room, or whatever suits your needs. In addition, there are 2 bedrooms and a full bath with soaking tub, double vanity, and oversized tile shower on this level. As the last property on a private, dead-end road with 59.3 acres, you'll be truly connected to the land. While most of the property is wooded, including approximately 3,000 maple trees, the open acreage offers more than enough space for gardens and animals. Trees harvested from the property can be used to fuel the wood furnace, located in the 65x40' steel garage/barn with 12x16' door, which heats both the garage and the house. Embrace your love of nature and all that it offers with this property at the top of Vermont's incredible Northeast Kingdom.
