The possibilities are endless with this beautiful property that has been in the same family since 1964! You will not find a nicer piece of Vermont land than this, with approx. 34 acres of open pastureland bordered by hundreds of feet of the Williams River. This stream offers some great summertime activities such as swimming and fishing! The house and attached barns can be a showplace with some love, and this property is looking for that person who can bring it back to its former glory days. As they say, the buildings have good bones, so consider this a blank canvas to do whatever you please for renovations. Since it's very original, you can update without having to tear out former "improvements" that might have taken away the antique charm. Since it was a working farm at one time, it still has the old silo. Years ago, this was made into a 4-level living unit. You can bring this back to life and use it as a very unique vacation rental or keep it as a very cool place for your kids and grandkids - much cooler than a treehouse! The attached barn is huge and for years it was used as a barn antique store. You could do that again, or you could use it for animals. With the open land which supplies a big supply of hay each year, this property would be great for horses, cows, and other large animals. There is also a sugar house, plus a separate building out front that was also used for the antique business. Several apple trees, a huge rhubarb patch, and more! Don't wait on this one!
