NEAR THE END OF A DEAD-END ROAD - Tucked away on 5 acres, this inviting 1 3/4-story Cape-style home offers privacy and warmth. Built in 1983/1991 and well maintained, the home features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, including a privacy guest suite on the spacious main level. Inside, you'll find pine floors throughout, cathedral ceilings, a second-story loft, and a comfortable sunroom with terra cotta tile - great for plants and relaxing in natural light. The updated kitchen in 2005 is nicely appointed with a mix of custom drawers, cabinets & open shelving. Beautiful soapstone counters with an undermount sink, and equipped with a Liebherr refrigerator with dual freezers and a Bosch dishwasher. The kitchen flows comfortably into the open living area, anchored by a Jotul woodstove. Other highlights include a solar roof array to pre-heat the 80-gallon electric hot water system, a first-floor laundry with a newer washer & dryer, and a tiled main bathroom. There is a generous basement for additional storage. Outdoor living flows nicely to a larger private deck, a covered porch, and scenic surroundings ideal for gardening, recreation, or hobby farming. There's a cute little cabin tucked in the woods for the grandkids. With a metal roof, efficient systems, and thoughtful updates, this property blends rural charm with practical modern comfort. Conveniently located within easy driving distance of Woodstock, Quechee, DHMC, and Dartmouth College. Occupancy given in early January 2026.
