If you are looking for a relaxing place to enjoy a visit to an iconic picturesque New England village, this is it. This recently updated 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home is set perfectly in a private area, surrounded by lush trees on three sides, with the fourth side boasting breathtaking western views of the Green Mountains, from sunlight dawn to spectacular sunset. This spacious home offers a seamless and open layout that facilitates both convivial gatherings, as well as spaces to enjoy peaceful respites-- indoors and out.
Whether you're visiting during winter, spring, summer, or for the glorious fall foliage season, you will find yourself in a perfect place to enjoy all the Upper Valley has to offer. Situated just three miles from Woodstock, two miles from Quechee, and only 17 miles from Hanover, NH and Dartmouth, you'll have easy access to cultural activities, leaf-peeping, antiquing, outdoor adventures, or simply unwinding.
As our guest you have access to the Quechee Club, a four-season playground offering a spectrum of recreational activities including two top-rated golf courses, tennis and pickle ball, indoor and outdoor pools, a gym, hiking trails, kayaking on Lake Pinneo, a ski hill, and dining. Learn more at QuecheeClub.com.
Nature lovers can enjoy exploration of nearby trails and parks such as the Quechee Gorge Trail and State Park, the Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historic Park, and local peaks perfect for hiking, biking, and enjoying scenic views. Winter enthusiasts can ski cross-country, snow shoe, or hit the ski slopes at the club or venture to nearby resorts like Saskadena Six (local) and Killington (40 minutes). The club’s Ski Quechee is widely recognized as a family-and beginner-friendly ski area with ski lift operation, groomed downhill and cross-country trails, and renowned ski school and competitive ski team, all open to the local community.
The surrounding area is brimming with local attractions, including the renowned Simon Pearce farm-to-table restaurant and glass blowing, the historic Woodstock Village, the Woodstock Inn, Billings Farm, art galleries, breweries, antique shops, farmers markets, and more. Foodies will delight in the range of farm-to-table restaurants we list in our guest guide.
Approaching the home is a charming experience in itself, crossing the historic Taftsville or Quechee covered bridges and quickly arriving up via paved roads to our paved driveway. Inside you'll find a recently updated home with a remodeled kitchen that is fully-equipped, featuring a Wolf gas range and professional-grade cookware, and a charcoal grill just outside the kitchen door. Comfortable new furnishings and artwork grace the family and living areas, with Xfinity and Roku televisions, and 5g wifi for up to a dozen devices.
Bedrooms include two corner primary suites; one a very spacious suite conveniently located on the main level with lovely views on three sides, and upstairs another primary suite nicknamed "the tree house" by one of our guests for its breezes and expansive corner views of mountains and trees.
The magnificent western views can be enjoyed from every room on the lower level. Each bedroom in the home offers beautiful view of nature. Whether you're sipping coffee, tea, or wine, or preparing a gourmet meal, the vistas will be your constant companion.
Cozy up to the wood-burning fireplace in the living room, or the wood stove that provides ample warmth to the kitchen and family room. Summer comforts include air conditioning throughout. A tidy laundry room is located just off the kitchen for your convenience.
Step outside to enjoy all of the features of the newly upgraded landscape in your very private setting. The array of outdoor improvements includes blue stone patios, a fire pit, a covered pergola, and a stocked wood shed with easy access from the garage.
Just off the kitchen, the new stone patio and wood deck are set up for relaxing and enjoying meals with family and friends, all while enjoying the amazing view of the Green Mountains. An expansive lawn lends itself to games, and a view of the lily pond and fountain.
Indulge in the complete experience of this warm and inviting home in a unique location where - as the details in our reviews attest - modern comfort meets natural beauty, and unforgettable memories are waiting to be created.
