Set on more than 12 acres in Monkton, this classic Vermont farmhouse captures the kind of peaceful country living people dream about. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and nearly 1,900 square feet, the property offers space, privacy, and the beauty of nature just 25 minutes to Burlington or Middlebury. An essential mudroom welcomes you inside, opening to a warm eat-in kitchen with Schuler hickory cabinetry, Silestone countertops, and updated appliances. From there, the home flows easily into the living area overlooking the composite deck and your own private pond a special setting for morning coffee, evening sunsets, and quiet reflection. A small fenced area off the deck adds comfort and flexibility for outdoor living. Hardwood floors carry throughout the main level, which includes a dining room and a cozy den anchored by a wood stove perfect for snowy Vermont evenings. The first-floor primary bedroom, renovated full bath, and laundry create the rare opportunity for one-level living within a classic farmhouse design. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a ¾ bath provide comfortable space for family or guests, with mini-split systems in each bedroom for efficient cooling. Outside, a productive kitchen garden with raised beds and established perennial fruits, blueberries, raspberries, grapes, hardy kiwi, cherry, apple, and peach makes this a true homesteader's haven. The detached workshop barn (built in 2010) offers outstanding versatility with loft storage and covered parking. Open acreage stretches behind the home with mountain views and glowing sunsets. Extensive improvements, including updated windows, siding, kitchen, baths, solar panels, pellet stove, mini-splits, and a 200-amp electrical upgrade, ensure modern comfort while preserving timeless Vermont character.
