Charming 1850s farmhouse nestled on 198+ acres of woods, pastures, and a headwaters brook which was once the site of a starch mill. The current owner is only the third since the home was built. Many structural improvements have been made while honoring the original charm and history. Follow the path from the house down to the brook and enjoy the waterfalls and swimming hole. Relax on the front porch with morning coffee or evening refreshments and gaze down the road, listening to the brook and watching for wildlife. Property abuts the Babcock Nature Preserve with its hiking trails and access to the Long Trail. Nearly equidistant to three area ski resorts - Stowe, Jay Peak, and Smugglers Notch - this is a ski and snowboard enthusiast's dream! The property is in current use and therefore enjoys lower property taxes. Whether you are seeking a year-round residence, recreational retreat, hobby farm, or future homestead, this rare offering combines natural beauty, harmony, and substantial acreage in one remarkable package.
