150 Willoughby Lake RoadBrownington, VT 05860Price: $199,000

Just three-quarters of a mile from the Town Beach at Willoughby Lake, this affordable log-sided gambrel is the perfect NEK getaway. The home is laid out in two tiers, with living space above and utility space below. Originally built in 1988, the interior was recently finished in 2022, giving the second level a clean, move-in feel. The summer sunset views are spectacular from the deck after days spent enjoying the surrounding lakes and mountains. The rope swing at Devil's Rock, the peaks of Mount Hor and Pisgah, North Beach, and the fire tower at Bald Mountain could all be minutes from your door. VAST and VASA trails cross the road within riding distance of the property. With the house set well back from the road providing ample privacy, the 1.2-acre lot is loaded with an array of perennials and fruits: gooseberries, currants, blackberries, raspberries, crab apples, and an epic granddaddy blueberry patch. 3-season utilities are in place with spring water, 100-amp power, and conventional septic. A collectible 1966 Detroiter mobile home sits on the property as well, though it's no longer connected to utilities. It presents an interesting opportunity to revive a piece of mid-century Americana. Come take a look and get your Vermont adventure started.
