About this home
Welcome to Forest's Edge. Set along a quiet country road traveled only by those with a reason to be there, this 1950s farmhouse presents that rare, elusive balance: complete sanctuary without isolation. Following a comprehensive, top-to-bottom renovation in 2021, every surface has been lovingly reimagined with an emphasis on quiet luxury and timeless craft. Arrival begins along a classic peastone driveway edged in Belgian block. A deep, welcoming front porch sets the scene generously scaled for classic Adirondack chairs, crisp afternoon breezes, and effortless entertaining. Inside, the main floor unfolds with natural light with windows surrounding the space. The living room serves as a cozy anchor, centered around a focal stone fireplace with a convenient propane insert and flanked by windows that invite sunlight to stream through all day. Just beyond, the dining area catches lovely views of the side porch stretching toward the pool. The kitchen is a beautiful balance of form and function: custom-paneled appliances, elegant marble countertops, a center island with an integrated breakfast bar, and a six-burner Wolf range equipped with a griddle and double ovens. Completing the main level is a powder room and a flexible front office that could seamlessly transition into a mudroom or playroom. The second floor hosts three spacious bedrooms, a full bath, and a dedicated laundry room that makes daily routines feel entirely luxurious.
The entire third floor is devoted to the primary retreat, elevated high in the treetops for ultimate privacy. This sanctuary includes an expansive walk-in closet-easily tailored as a quiet reading lounge or private office-and a spa-inspired bath complete with a walk-in shower and deep soaking tub. Outdoors, the landscape honors the property's natural contours. Professionally designed perennial beds weave around a dramatic rock formation, while hydrangeas dot the open lawn. Tucked discreetly away from the main house, a tranquil pool and sun deck offer the ultimate private retreat for warm summer afternoons. A seamless blend of character and modern convenience, where no detail was too small to consider, and no expense was spared. Proven academic year and summer rental income property.

Located a mile from the village of Salisbury and on a quiet dead end road, this home has had only one owner. Set on .86 acre, the Colonial style home was built in 1955. The living room has a fieldstone fireplace and there are hardwood floors in the dining room, living room and den. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms, laundry and full bathroom. An unfinished walk up attic offers great potential for additional finished space. The house has newer windows and a code compliant 3 bedroom septic was installed the end of 2015. There is also an in-ground vinyl liner pool on the property. The house needs updating, but the location and size make it a project worth doing. Being sold as-is.
