Description

Welcome to Cider Hollow, where autumn lingers a little longer, apples ripen in the crisp country air, and life moves at a gentler pace. Across 50+ acres of meadows, wooded trails, apple trees and blueberry bushes, a circa 1763 post-and-beam barn has been reimagined into a home full of warmth and character. Wander the trails to quiet sitting spots, pick fruit in season, or linger at the potting shed overlooking the spring-fed pond. Inside, sunlight spills across hardwood floors beneath soaring ceilings and exposed beams. A dramatic circular brick chimney anchors the living space, while a Waterford woodstove promises cozy evenings. Picture coffee beside the floor-to-ceiling dining room windows, dinner in the country kitchen with custom pine cabinetry, or a good book beside the mezzanine fireplace. A flexible first-floor office or bedroom sits near an updated bath with a clawfoot tub. Upstairs are two bedrooms, including a skylit primary suite with a walk-in closet. Thoughtful care includes a new chimney in 2020, window updates in 2024 and ongoing slate roof maintenance. And just when you think you've discovered all this property has to offer, there's more. A separate building holds a charming library with walls wrapped in bookshelves and a half bath. Above, a sun-drenched, open-concept studio apartment offers possibilities for guests, extended family or potential rental income. A detached garage provides space for a vehicle and recreational toys, with a loft above for storage or future possibilities. Beyond the property, explore the charming Vermont villages of Manchester, Dorset and Arlington, or spend winter afternoons skiing at nearby Willard Mountain, Bromley or Stratton. Yet the best part may be returning home, where the pond rests quietly, the trees turn brilliant shades of amber and gold, and a warm fire awaits. At Cider Hollow, every season has a story to tell. Perhaps the next one will be yours. All appliances are to convey in as is condition. Oven is not working currently, and seller never used the freezer condition is unkown.
