Located off of Route 5 (Brattleboro Rd), surrounded by rural farmland and beautiful views, this property offers a quiet, peaceful setting while also being just moments from I-91 and from the Vermont border. This three-bedroom ranch is ready for its new owner. The immediate acre around the house provides plenty of space for relaxing around the firepit, enjoying the front yard, and gardening in your raised beds, while the additional acreage offers even more room for small livestock, homesteading hobbies, and recreational use, with wooded back acreage containing trails ideal for ATV riding, dirt bikes, hiking, and exploring your own land. Inside, the home boasts a convenient layout with three bedrooms, a full bath, kitchen, dining, and living room all on one level, and tons of natural light in every room. The full basement offers even more room to grow that could make a perfect home gym, additional living space or just be used for ample storage. The attached garage is perfect for even more storage or extra workspace. The red metal barn, (installed in 2022), is currently set up and is being used for livestock. A newer shed, as well as two more sheds, coops, carport and livestock fencing, patio furniture and grills to remain for buyer's enjoyment.
