Chester Vermont Home for Sale
Christmas Tree Farm Road
Chester, Vermont 05143
Set in the heart of Southern
Vermont on a tranquil 245 acres, this property is not only unique, but
extremely special.
It is designed around an original
stone and log home which was built in 1981. All stone work was
gathered from the property, as were the beautiful wooden hand-hewn
beams. An addition was completed in 2004 and offers airy, light
filled spaces with UNBELIEVABLE views!
The home sits at the end of a town
road, through a private gate. A meandering brook parallels the
half mile driveway. The home is four miles from the charming
town of Chester, two hours from Boston and
four hours from Manhattan. In the town of Springfield, Vermont,
15 miles away, is a 3000 foot landing strip suitable for jets.
Within thirty minutes drive are four major Vermont ski areas:
Bromley, Stratton, Okemo and Magic.
Wildlife sighting occurs
daily: moose, deer, upland bird game and an occasional black bear
(very shy). Yearly income from the forest part
of the property is enough to cover real estate taxes.
Vermont stone (gathered from the
property) is used throughout the interior and exterior of the
house. Four wood burning fireplaces grace this house. The
office/den/library enjoys sweeping views and is a quite and private
place to relax or conduct business. The
dining room which is open to the kitchen invites casual and holiday
style entertainment. The room is open, airy and bright with a
vaulted
ceiling exposing hand-hewn beams (which came from the property).
Sliding glass doors allow access to the wrap-around deck which features
its own outdoor, sunken stone fireplace!
The
delightful country kitchen uses top of the line appliances and granite
counter tops. The wall of picture windows and skylights insure
maximum
light.
The master suite includes his and
her marble baths with walk-in closets. The suite faces south with
a large picture window and access to a sizeable balcony.
