So much to love, starting with the BRAND NEW SEPTIC! Sprawling 4 bed, 2 bath Ranch brimming with character PLUS two big outbuildings. Set back from 7A near Clearbrook Farm and The Chocolate Barn, close to Lake Shaftsbury. Just 12 mins to Bennington or 22 mins to Manchester. Formerly a hobby farm, wood shop, and mechanic's garage, these 3.3 acres are a sanctuary. One level house for comfort and convenience. From the covered porch you'll first enter the mudroom, with 3 bedrooms and full bath with laundry nearby. Custom Kitchen with butternut cabinets, live edge countertops, 3-bay commercial sink, Stainless Steel gas range and fridge. Dining + Living with soapstone woodstove and unique feature wall: the former barback from the Sirloin Saloon! Timberframe sunroom added in 1998: tile floor, cathedral ceiling, abundant natural light... your plants will thrive! Office with French doors and built-in desk is an accessible work-from-home space. Primary bedroom has built-in dresser and vaulted pine ceiling, and its own 3/4 bath with step-in tiled shower and Danby marble counter. Unfinished concrete basement has Buderus boiler, oil tank, 200 amps, and double-door exterior entry (great for storing firewood). Abundant spring water source! New roof in 2022. Enjoy the above-ground pool, gazebo, decks, and perennial gardens. Two-story barn (built 2014) and heated garage (1996) share a separate 200 amp service, plus there's a shed and coop. Ideal for a home-based business.
