The home
About this home
Welcome to your fully furnished chalet-style escape in Townshend, Vermont. Tucked away at the end of a private drive on 10 partially cleared, usable acres, this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers the perfect blend of comfort and Vermont charm. With four separate sleeping areas, there's plenty of space. The first-floor primary suite provides a private retreat with its own ensuite bathroom. Above, a striking loft bridge connects the second-floor sleeping spaces while overlooking the dramatic great room below, adding architectural character and enhancing the home's open-concept design. The spacious loft features expansive windows that frame the surrounding landscape and offers ample room for two beds. Exposed timber beams, wide- plank wood floors, and soaring wood-paneled ceilings create the warm character of a classic Vermont chalet. The centrally located kitchen offers views in every direction, allowing you to enjoy the surrounding landscape while remaining connected to the dining and living areas. Just off the main living space, the sunroom is filled with natural light through oversized sliding glass doors. Whether used as a relaxing sitting area or a practical mudroom and primary entrance, it provides a seamless connection between indoors and out. The open dining, living, and kitchen areas are designed for gathering, with easy access to the balcony off the dining room. It's the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, unwind at the end of the day, and take in the peaceful views of the expansive yard. The finished walkout basement is a flexible bonus space that can serve as a private guest suite, wellness room, bonus room, or office. Complete with a sauna, wood stove, and French doors leading to the outdoor fire pit and established flower gardens, it's a cozy extension of the home's living space. Less than 30 minutes to Mount Snow and Stratton Resort for year-round adventure, including skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, and golf.
