Discover the charm and tranquility of Vermont country living in this inviting farmhouse, privately nestled on nearly 2 acres in Barton. Surrounded by peaceful natural beauty, this property offers a wonderful combination of character, comfortable living spaces, and an expansive, mostly level yard with room to truly enjoy the outdoors. Step inside to a welcoming open living and dining area that flows into the cozy kitchen. A charming pass-through “window” connects the spaces and makes entertaining with family and friends effortless. The main level also features a delightful three-season porch with direct access to an adorable patio area enclosed by privacy fencing. A separate laundry room off the kitchen could also serve beautifully as a mudroom, and a full bath completes the first floor. Upstairs are three spacious bedrooms and a convenient half bath. The home has been thoughtfully renovated and recently refreshed with new paint throughout. The former screened porch has been transformed into a bright three-season enclosed porch with new ceilings, windows, and trim. Outside is where this property truly shines. The large, level lawn provides plenty of room for gardening, outdoor games, play structures, pets, or simply stretching out and enjoying the privacy of your own Vermont retreat. The fenced-in yard offers added convenience for children and pets, while the surrounding acreage creates a wonderful sense of space and seclusion. And then there is the brook. A babbling stream runs along the back of the property, creating a peaceful backdrop and a special connection to nature. Spend summer afternoons cooling off in the water, try your hand at trout fishing, or simply sit nearby with a good book and enjoy the soothing sounds of the stream. Ideally located within walking distance to Orleans Country Club and Willoughby Falls, and close to village amenities. Breathtaking Lake Willoughby is just six miles away for boating, fishing and swimming. High-speed internet avail.
