29 Stevensville Rd, Underhill, VT 05489

Nestled in the charming New England village of Underhill Center, this beautifully crafted home sits at the foot of Mount Mansfield and along the scenic Brown's River. Built by Vermont's Tom Moore and inspired by Sarah Susanka's "The Not So Big House" philosophy, it emphasizes quality craftsmanship over sheer size while remaining close to the core of Chittenden County. Thoughtful built-ins enhance both function and style, starting with a spacious mudroom featuring custom cubbies, coat pegs, and a baseboard heater for winter comfort. The open-concept design allows for seamless transitions marked by elegant archways. The chef's kitchen showcases intricate marquetry in multiple wood types, a well-planned work triangle, and leather-finished walls for depth. The dining area is equally impressive, with ceiling-height pantry cupboards and a beautifully patterned ash floor. The cozy living room features a built-in entertainment center, a corner fireplace framed in warm pink-tinged stone, and expert woodwork incorporating over 15 wood varieties. The upstairs bedrooms offer ample storage, with floor-to-ceiling cupboards and built-in chests made of contrasting woods.
