DESCRIPTION
Set atop a hill above a long, meandering driveway, is this unique contemporary home. Built by an architect as his own home, this home has many unique architectural features.

With dramatic views of Camel's Hump and the Green Mountains, this home has a very peaceful and serene location. Secluded, yet just a 25 minute commute to both Burlington and Middlebury, this home has the comfort of country living with the convenience of the cities nearby.

This home is set upon 3 acres of lovely grounds with perennial gardens, mature trees, flowering shrubs and stone walls and backs to trails. Enjoy the views from the expansive wrap around deck.

Inside the home, you are welcomed to a remodeled cook's kitchen with high quality appliances (including a high end Wolf cooktop and Miele Platinum dishwasher) and extensive cabinetry including pull out racks on both the pantry and the lazy Susan cabinet. A pot rack hangs above the island which has seating for four and a double sink. A beautiful ceramic tile backsplash and green slate countertop accent the wood floors. The slate used in the countertop is local VT-NY state line quarried and is a very forgiving surface that does not absorb stains. There are also a built-in LG refrigerator, Jenn Air oven and a microwave oven. Many windows show off the expansive views from both the cooking and dining areas. The dining area connects directly to the deck and has a two story ceiling with skylights and copious windows from which to enjoy the views while dining.

The dramatic, brightly lit family room boasts a two-story Panton stone fireplace, skylights and copious windows. Relax and enjoy the fire or some quiet conversation while basking in the soothing warmth of this large, yet cozy room. There is a small loft area which overlooks the family room and its beamed ceiling.

The master bedroom offers a tongue and groove wood paneled wall with cathedral beamed ceiling and a double closet with organizers. The second bedroom is very spacious and also offers an oversized double closet. Both rooms have a view of the mountains. The third bedroom is located on the top floor and has a unique L-shape. It has an extra high ceiling, tongue and groove wall, a wall of closets and a small loft area which would make a perfect play area for children. This room is also perfect to be used as a home office. A den, guest room or office is located on the third level.

The two full baths are loaded with character. The master bath is brightly lit due to the large skylight and features a dormered ceiling, soothing soaking tub, separate stall shower and large vanity with Corian sink top and extra cabinetry. The color scheme is very soothing in tones of aquamarine and white. The second full bath is decorated in tones of yellow and white with an artsy ceramic tile design and faux painted walls.

This exciting and very interesting home features a dramatic multi-level floorplan with four levels plus a basement. A unique feature of this home is the faux painted stairs which look like natural stone. The open landings with windows and cut-outs make for an interesting feature. There are some six panel wood doors as well as natural wood trim. Most rooms have hardwood floors. The many windows and skylights let in copious amounts of natural lighting.

There is a separate building private from the main house with a one bedroom apartment (approx. 400 square feet) located over the two car detached garage. It has been a popular rental for many years. Currently rented to the same tenant for many years at $645 a month, the market can probably support an $800-$900 monthly rental. The apartment has its own washer-dryer room and back deck.

This fine home was built in 1970 with many updates in the 1990s and 2000+. Mini additions of the dining area and living room were built in the 1990s. The kitchen and baths were entirely remodeled, most of the windows have been replaced and wood floors have been refinished. The house and garage were repainted in 2006. After an energy audit a few years ago, the attic, basement and east windows' frames in the master and top floor bedroom were further insulated. The roofs were replaced in 2003 with 40 year architectural shingles.

This peaceful home is perfect for an artist's retreat.

Charlotte is an upscale town with a top notch school system.

This home is located within ten minutes to both Mount Philo State Park and Kingsland Bay State Park. Mount Philo is Vermont's oldest state park and offers magnificent views of Lake Champlain and the Adirondacks with a mountaintop picnic site. Kingsland Bay State Park offers swimming, canoe and kayak rentals, trails and a picnic area.
