About this property
A-Frame Resto-Mod: Built in '73, Restored in '23
This updated mid-century A-Frame look out across the Mad River Valley and sits above the historic Waitsfield Common Road, locally known as one of the best walking/biking roads in the Valley, if not all of Vermont.
The ski resorts are a 10 to 15 minute drive away. In the warmer months this is a great starting point for hiking, biking, kayaking, and fishing. After a day out, unwind in the hot tub and take in the fresh air.
The floor-to-peak windows of this updated mid-century A-Frame look out across the Mad River Valley. It's an easy walk to the historic Waitsfield Common Road, locally known as one of the best walking/biking roads in the Valley, if not all of Vermont.
The Vonn Trapp Farm Store (yes, the hills are alive with the Von Trapps) is a neighbor down the road.
The ski resorts are a 10 to 15 minute drive away. In the warmer months this is a great starting point for hiking, biking, kayaking, and fishing. The surrounding area is rich with wildlife and natural beauty, providing a calm backdrop for outdoor adventures or quiet relaxation. After a day out, unwind in the hot tub and take in the fresh air.
Inside, this updated classic A-Frame is bright and inviting, with an open living area centered on a stone fireplace. It's it a great spot for reading or watching TV. The big windows fill the space with natural light while the spacious deck is perfect for enjoying the view over a morning coffee or a cookout.
The fully equipped kitchen includes stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and a big dining table, ideal for preparing and sharing meals after a day of exploring. There’s a dedicated workspace if you need to attend to remote work during your stay.
The bedrooms are spacious and well-appointed, ensuring everyone has a restful night. Kids and their friends will enjoy the bunkroom, creating their own fun and memories in a comfortable space.
