26 River ST Woodstock, VT 05091

One of Woodstock's most beautiful Greek Revival homes sited on a landscaped village lot that rolls gently down to the Ottauquechee River. The riverfront lawn is sheltered from activity on the Green and enjoys views of the iconic covered Middle Bridge. This authentic antique house is configured with the gable end facing the street and a series of westerly side entry doors. The facades are a template of aesthetic tastes with original classic architectural form modified in the late 19th Century with Carpenter Gothic elements in keeping with the Victorian style. The central country-kitchen is the common gateway to the home with more formal spaces and bedrooms located in the front portion of the residence. The original barn has evolved into a family great room/library with a wood-burning fireplace and opening onto the elevated deck overlooking the river. There are two 1st floor bedrooms with shared a bathroom and upstairs there are 2 private bedrooms and a study adapted to bedroom use that opens out to an old-fashion sleeping porch. A long bunkroom accessed off a back stairway sleeps a crowd during holidays and other occasions. This is an opportunity to acquire a rare gem of a home on the river.
