| Description: |
In addition to a straight purchase, we are willing to consider a Lease-to-Buy option, with the buyer providing eventual financing to close the deal. Details negotiable.Steve lovingly built this house for his family in 1992. It enjoys easy access to all the best that southern Vermont has to offer and includes a detached 2-story garage. Privately located on a peaceful country road, this sweet and sunny West Halifax home sits on 4+ wooded acres overlooking the pastures of the Shearer Hill Farm B&B - the only neighbor in sight. Just 10 min from Wilmington, 15 min to Marlboro College, 20 min to Mt. Snow and a half hour drive to Bennington, Brattleboro or Greenfield, MA.Family and friends step down into the sunny sunken living room - with vaulted ceiling - right out one of the double sliders, and onto the private deck to spend afternoons under the old apple tree. The mature perennial landscaping is easy to care for as-is, and also offers further potential for garden-lovers. After preparing meals in the open-concept kitchen, family dinners are enjoyed while the setting sun shines in through the picture window in the dining room.
The main-floor master bedroom - with private full bath - also has a picture window that looks out over a lovely stone patio. Kids and guests stay upstairs in the other 2-3 bedrooms. The washer & dryer are in the oversized full bath on the second floor.At the end of the driveway there's a two-story garage where 2 cars can be sheltered from the weather. There's also a work bench and lots of shelving/work space there on the first floor. The second floor serves as storage is ready and can be finished off into office space or an apartment that would have premium full-time or seasonal rental potential.We enjoy using the Vermont Association of Snowmobile Trails -- VAST access is literally a quick 2 minute walk down the road for warm weather strolls and wintertime cross-country skiing and snowmobiling.
This home is efficiently heated by oil-fired forced hot air -- although we've been happy just using the wood stove.
We look forward to hearing from you!
