You'll be drawn in by the view of the mountains - nearly 360 degrees; you can see all the way to Burke Mountain toward the Sheffield wind towers. The private location of this home will surely give you the peace & quiet you're looking for in a rural town. Close to Lake Parker, Crystal Lake, Willoughby Lake for boating, swimming, fishing & hiking as well as Canada, Lake Memphremagog & Jay Peak for skiing & the Water Park; Burke for skiing & mountain biking. Snowmobiling is nearby as well. The barn hasn't been utilized in years - some cow stancions are left, but was last occupied by chickens! The upper level of the barn is amazing & has good access off the back side - take a look at the unique structure & imagine the tons of hay that was stored here. The quonset shaped open shed needs work for any of your other storage needs. The house will need your vision, TLC & special touch to make it "home" again. Tons of potential with open kitchen/dining area, living rm overlooking the deck & view, 1st floor bedroom, full bath/laundry on main flr. Upstairs: 2 bedrms, office, full bath, & play area/craft space or reading nook. There's a partial-to-full walk out basement. The house has been winterized as the boiler is old & the oil tank needs replacing, enclosed porch & deck may need re-building. Items/debris in the garage being removed. The beauty of the area, the peace & quiet is what drew these owners to the property. Take a look for yourself to see if this will become your happy place!
