Property Description
Step into Vermont history with this beautifully preserved 1835 home, once owned by Pulitzer Prize winning author Pearl S. Buck. Rich in historic character, the house features original tin ceilings, charming built-ins, and period details throughout, blended seamlessly with significant modern upgrades totaling over $200,000 in recent years. The first floor includes a spacious living room with a wood stove, a dining room, a renovated kitchen with new appliances and updated electrical and insulation, a library or office, and a first floor bedroom and bathroom. Sliding doors open to a large fenced backyard filled with mature trees and the soothing sounds of the Mill Brook, which runs next to the property. Upstairs, the newly renovated primary suite offers a generous walk-in closet and peaceful views of the brook. Two additional bedrooms and a stylish new bath complete the second floor. Recent updates include a new standing seam metal roof, heat pumps, solar panels, a radon mitigation system, structural work in the basement, new chimney, hot water heater, and much more. The home combines the timeless beauty of a historic farmhouse with the comfort and efficiency of today's living.
