Gorgeous 180 valley views from this renovated 3 bed, 1.5 bath farmhouse on ~19 acres, with a large rolling meadow and almost a mile of Rail Trail frontage. This is Vermont living to the core. Renovated in early 2000's; roof, windows, insulation, doors, mudroom, deck, siding. Awesome update basement, no really! 2025 updates: bathroom vanity, toilet, hardware, and Kitchen counter, faucet. Convenient mudroom and kitchen entrances off covered porch. The large kitchen has plenty of room for your vintage hutch, and more. Original wood floors. Main floor also includes living room, newly renovated half-bath and main floor laundry. Kitchen, deck and pool face North to rolling meadows, expect routine deer and turkey visits. Upstairs offers three bedrooms with large closets, a large renovated full bathroom with closet and a craft/reading nook. Of note, the second floor offers full height ceilings, large closets and updated outlets. Vintage features, hardware and charm are...everywhere. A modern poured concrete foundation basement with high ceilings keeps your gear well lit, sorted and dry. A beast of an updated woodstove cranks out heat in the winter to supplement a propane wall heater unit in the living room. The upper high meadows are rolling, suitable for grazing critters or windy walks. The northern end is more wooded, and a lowland area is fed by a stream: beavers have recently created a distant pond area along the Rail Trail line. Also, you will find a large, fully fenced garden with multiple raised beds, established berry bushes and a chicken coop. Black Creek, that feeds into Lake Champlain, is across the rail trail. The wooded areas are lovely and rugged; good for foraging, hiking and losing track of an afternoon. ~20 minutes to St. Albans. Call for a showing today!
