Set on a quiet Vermont cul-de-sac, this thoughtfully updated home does not just check boxes. It sets a mood. Calm, private, and beautifully dialed-in, it offers the kind of everyday ease that makes home feel less like a place to manage and more like a place to exhale. Inside, warm hardwood floors, subtle paint colors, and smart material choices create a grounded, inviting feel. The custom kitchen brings real character with butcher block counters, slate and granite accents, modern appliances, and open shelving that feels both useful and stylish. From here, life flows easily into the dining area, the screened-in sun porch, and out to the stone patio and gardens. The backyard is the quiet star. Peaceful, private, and made for slow mornings, summer dinners, or a post-sauna cool-down. Yes, there is a custom cedar electric sauna, because Vermont living should come with a little ritual. The owners have made meaningful updates, including heat pumps, a newer boiler and hot water heater, generator hookup, and other practical improvements that add comfort and confidence. Marmoleum flooring in the kitchen and hallway, a beautifully tiled bath, and a stone walkway to the main entrance show the same care in the details. The lower level adds flexible space with a large mudroom entry, generous storage, room for guests, a half bath, and space for a TV room, workshop, or whatever life needs next. A two-car garage completes the package.
