177 Ten Stones Circle, Charlotte, VT 05445

Seize this rare opportunity to live in the much sought-after neighborhood of Ten Stones, 87 acres of Vermont Land Trust conserved fields, forests, and orchards encompassing 17 private homes. Walking distance to Shelburne Orchards and Lake Champlain, the community is 15 minutes’ drive to Burlington. Ten Stones’ shared assets include a central green, vintage barn, common house for gatherings, treehouse, trails, and ample community gardens (see video). The home’s layout evokes a villa, inviting daylight into every room, surrounded by mature birch, dogwood, lilacs, and perennial plantings. A cedar porch under cover of a designed green roof makes this a refuge of privacy and warmth. Solid stucco walls take advantage of passive solar energy in the winter months, yet keep the house cool in the summer. On the first floor, a delightfully conceived flow of rooms creates an atmosphere of connection between the den, study, library, and living-dining-kitchen. 9-foot ceilings and deep-set windows provide both spaciousness and earthy comfort, while the main bedroom opens onto a trellised porch through arched French doors. Ascend the stairs to a bright family room overlooking the Ten Stones green. Under the gables are two cozy bedrooms, a mirrored hallway of closets, and a second full bath. The home comes with a share of the group net metered community solar array. Ten Stones is a vibrant place to live where values of community and privacy have found a perfect balance.
