Surrounded by conserved land with sweeping views of the Connecticut River Valley and White Mountains, this beautifully converted Vermont Schoolhouse blends historic charm with thoughtful, modern updates. Lovingly maintained by a professional gardener and a cabinetmaker, the home and gardens reflect years of skilled care and attention to detail. Set on 1.6 acres, the L-shaped lot features flourishing perennial borders, fruit and nut trees, berry bushes, a kitchen garden, and a custom timber-frame garden shed. A scenic pond near the driveway invites wildlife and a nearby stone patio offers a peaceful place to relax in the sun or under autumn leaves. The traditional front porch welcomes you with vintage character, while the large back deck is ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or play. Inside, a vaulted-ceiling kitchen with walnut countertops opens to a cozy dining area and a sunlit living room warmed by a Jotul wood stove. Flexible rooms accommodate bedrooms, offices, or studios. The primary bedroom features a tiled ensuite bath and ample closet space. Above the garage, a beautifully finished, heated studio or office space offers a quiet, light-filled retreat, ideal for creative work, remote meetings, or simply enjoying the view. This one-of-a-kind home is ready to welcome its next chapter.
