A Piece of Paradise in Norwich, Vermont

This extraordinary Vermont country property offers total privacy, stunning long-range views, and an elegant home just minutes from Norwich Village and Dartmouth College. A hidden gem in a serene, nature refuge, it is home to bluebirds, deer, barred owls and tree frogs. Originally built in 1993, this classic center chimney Cape by distinguished builder Doug Gest combines the charm and aesthetic of a true antique with all the modern amenities. Reclaimed antique brick hearths, hand-planed raised paneled woodwork and doors, and wide pine floors evoke a sense of history and warmth. The first floor features the gracefully proportioned living room, dining room and den each with its own fireplace, offering both comfort and sophistication. A striking "good morning" staircase leads to the second floor, with a primary bedroom and ensuite bath boasting handmade Italian tiles. There are two additional bedrooms with a shared full bath and entrancing views of the surrounding countryside from every room. Two well-appointed offices, each with private entry, provide the ultimate work-from-home spaces-ideal for balancing work and personal life in a peaceful setting surrounded by gorgeous views of mountains, rolling lawns, fields filled with wild flowers, and meticulously maintained stone patios and gardens. The spring-fed pond, home to turtles and frogs, is the finishing touch, creating an idyllic outdoor environment. A three-car barn provides generous parking and storage space. With access to a network of trails right outside the front door, the property offers year-round recreational opportunities, including hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. This is truly a one-of-a-kind property offering the best of Vermont country living in an absolutely heavenly setting.
