A private mountain retreat to embrace the best that Vermont has to offer. Located within a short drive to skiing at Stratton, Bromley, and Magic, right around the corner from cross country skiing, and Lowell Lake. On 36 acres the meandering driveway takes you past a neighboring pond and winds up to the home with a grassy yard for lawn games and fire pit. 5 bedroom expanded cape with big views from multiple rooms and the expansive deck. Formal entry with sweeping staircase, front to back living room with hardwood floors and stone fireplace, generous kitchen with a sunny breakfast nook and a pellet stove, another gathering room and a main floor bedroom. Upstairs there are 4 additional bedrooms including 2 suites with private baths and a sitting area overlooking the pond and mountain vistas. The largest bedroom has another bonus room with gas fireplace for personal office or exercise oasis. Plenty of fun space in the finished lower level with room for games, wet bar, and bathroom. Recently repainted and refinished floors make this home move in ready. Income availability from the rental potential, possible subdivision, or tax savings with the Vermont Current Use program - the choice is yours!
