Tucked into the Vermont hills on 15 private acres, this inviting property offers the space and setting to bring your homesteading vision to life. The cozy floor plan features an open kitchen and dining area warmed by a woodstove, along with a sunny living room offering direct access to the covered porch. A full bathroom completes the main level. Upstairs, you’ll find two spacious bedrooms, while the walkout basement offers excellent potential for additional usable space. Outside, a newly installed greenhouse and shed provide a wonderful start for gardening, equipment storage, or small-scale agricultural pursuits. A spring-fed pond adds beauty and character to the landscape, and trails wind throughout the acreage for hiking, snowshoeing, and exploring. Set well away from Route 131, the property feels peaceful and secluded, yet enjoys convenient access to the main road at the bottom of the driveway. Whether you envision cultivating gardens, keeping animals, or creating a private Vermont retreat, this property offers an appealing combination of acreage, natural features, existing improvements, and privacy.

This private mountain home, on 15+/- acres, is right across the street from a popular fly-fishing river, is only 11 miles from Okemo Mountain and only 10 miles from I-91. There’s plenty of garden space, a small stream, and room to homestead! Entering upstairs, brings you into a bright, open kitchen/dining area, with some additional winter warmth provided by the wood stove. The cozy living room opens onto the full, second-level covered deck, so you can relax and enjoy the mountain air. Heading up the stairs you’ll find both of the bedrooms, ready for your finishing touches. There’s plenty of storage space in the unfinished basement, which you can walk in from the front yard and driveway (and has the potential to be finished). This serene property is perfectly positioned for you to enjoy the best of Vermont in every season.

Beautifully remodeled, rustic cabin on 15 +/- acres tucked away in the mountains of Cavendish, VT. Step inside to the open concept kitchen and dining area. Take in all the natural light this house has to offer throughout. Just off the dining area is the cozy living room great for those family game nights or quiet evenings in. Find your way upstairs to the bedrooms. One hosts a crawl space for storage, while the other has its own closet. This cabin has a full, unfinished basement with laundry and walks out to front yard and driveway. There are so many ways to relax in private, including the wood hot tub and secluded back yard; there is even a tree house just across the small stream that runs through the property. Don't forget the covered porch that is great for sitting and soaking up the scenery that surrounds you. This property is centrally located between I-91 and Okemo Mountain Resort. A must see charming Vermont home!
