Peace of mind is built-in with a recently serviced generator to keep you powered through any Vermont weather. The partially-finished basement includes two air-conditioned growing rooms, providing an ideal setup for year-round agricultural hobbies, specialty indoor gardening, or climate-controlled storage. Stepping outside, the property features multiple covered storage areas, a chicken coop adjacent to the house, and a large detached barn-style garage. This impressive outbuilding provides ample space for vehicles, equipment, a workshop, or toys on the main level. Upstairs, a finished bonus room serves as a private office, offering the ultimate quiet work-from-home sanctuary, art studio, or guest space completely separated from the main house. To make maintenance effortless, the property conveys with a zero-turn lawn mower and a snow blower. Whether you are looking to homestead, cultivate your own produce, work from home seamlessly, or simply enjoy the peace and privacy of southern Vermont, this property delivers endless possibilities. Conveniently located with easy access to Putney Village and I-91 while maintaining rural tranquility.
