Set on 6.81 private acres, this peaceful Custom Cape retreat blends warmth, creativity, and energy-efficient living in a serene natural setting. The open floor plan was intentionally designed to maximize efficiencies with sun-splashed interiors for passive solar design, owned solar panels, mini splits for heating and cooling, and the inviting ambiance of a wood stove. Thoughtfully designed spaces offer flexibility, character, features wide pine floors and a strong connection to the outdoors. Finished LL with separate entrance offers so many opportunities! A screened porch overlooks established natural gardens, peaceful pathways, and a tranquil fish pond with fountain feature — creating a true zen-inspired escape. The property feels private and restorative while remaining close to local favorites including Stone Cow Brewery, the Barre Common with year-round community events, plus nearby shops and services. A rare offering with personality, sustainability, and soul. Welcome Home!
