About this property
Feel Right At Home... While Being A Spectator Of Nature.
There are so many things you will love about our home in Manchester, Vermont, but I will begin with the wonderful feeling of stress and tension escaping you the minute you walk in the door. The house has four bedrooms and two and a half baths plus two living rooms and an eat in kitchen. Located on a private road and situated high into the trees surrounded by nature. I think of it as our treetop house because looking out into the tree tops and even further out into the mountains, it is a view that you will never get tired of. The house is very light and bright with many windows to be a spectator of nature from every room. Without the stresses of daily life, you may find yourself inspired to create and cook wonderful foods to enjoy, and the kitchen is equipped with all you need. The counter height table in the kitchen doubles as a center island. The table expands to seat up to eight people at once or just set up a buffet and have the whole family stand around and enjoy. The deck has a gas grill for barbecues and a patio set for outside dining. The upper level living room has beautiful surrounding windows which helps bring the outdoors in. Once the leaves have fallen there are beautiful mountain views from both living rooms, kitchen, office and two bedrooms. There is a fireplace in the living room inviting you to enjoy a glass of wine and some Vermont Cheddar with fig spread, or just roast some marshmallows with the kids.
The rooms are all filled with comfortable beds inviting and cozy. There are two bedrooms upstairs one with a queen size bed and the other with a full size bed. The hallway bathroom has a spacious shower equipped with hand rails and a bench for those who need some extra support. Downstairs on the lower level there is a second living room with beautiful surrounding windows similar to the living room upstairs. This living room contains a queen size sofa bed. There is a TV with Xfinty cable, DVD player, and a table for gaming, card playing or just to set out some snacks. There are one and half baths downstairs. The full bath has a shower/bathtub for the little ones. The third bedroom on the lower level has two twin size beds and the fourth bedroom has a queen size bed.
There is an bright office with many windows to work on your laptop and keep up with the outside world, or for the kids to finish up their homework. Xfinty cable provides cable TV, telephone and wireless internet. There is also a full size washer and dryer in the mud room. The house features an attached garage for easy entry into the house.
Now with all this in mind you are in Manchester Center, centrally located to enjoy skiing, hiking, fishing, relaxing at the lake, or just enjoying all the wonderful shops and restaurants Manchester has to offer. Bromley Mountain is a short 6 miles away and Stratton Mountain only 15 miles away. Vermont Summer Festival is 6 miles away, Emerald Lake State Park is 8 miles away and Outlet Shopping is only 3 miles away. There are two major grocery stores in town Shaws and Price Chopper. Manchester’s own Dana L. Tompkins Recreational Park has fields, tennis courts, walking path, playground, skateboard park, basketball courts and in the winter enjoy cross country skiing and snowshoeing. You can go hiking at nearby Prospect Rock Trail and Lyle Brook Falls Trailhead and don’t forget to visit Dorset Farmers Market every Sunday. Not only will you enjoy your stay in our Vermont home but you will quickly realize how much you miss it here and want to come back again!
