At the end of the road in Benedict Hollow, where privacy and the beauty of the Vermont woods take center stage, this completely renovated two-bedroom cabin is the perfect escape. Set within 32,000 acres of National Forest, the setting is remarkably peaceful and private, with a cascading stream visible from every window, extensive perennial gardens, stacked stone walls, and a beautifully restored stream-fed trout pond that creates a truly special retreat. A short walk to the historic Battenkill River, drop a line and hook a trout or take a float and relax in the waters of the Battenkill River. The cabin is completely renovated, offering easy, comfortable living with nothing left to do but arrive, unpack, and unwind. The kitchen is smartly designed with brand-new stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. A welcoming mudroom entry provides storage. Cathedral ceilings, tons of natural light, and many windows open to the surroundings, while the ¾ bath, dining/sitting room overlooking the stream, and cozy bunk room make excellent use of every inch. A stacked-stone fireplace adds warmth and character to the main living space. Step outside and the property becomes even more enchanting. The pond has been dredged and thoughtfully landscaped and hardscaped, with a screened gazebo overlooking the pond and stream, providing the perfect spot to settle in and do absolutely nothing. Professionally landscaped grounds, a large workshop/shed, and a new mound septic system add convenience and peace of mind. A charming new guest house overlooking the stream offers a private space for visitors, a home office, or simply a quiet place to escape with a good book. This is the Vermont getaway you have been looking for—private, peaceful, and surrounded by nature, yet completely ready to enjoy. Leave the projects behind, grab your toothbrush, and head up to Benedict Hollow. There is nothing to do but unwind.
