Welcome to Paradise! Did someone say Get-Away? Well, here it is! This storybook log home has been a year round home to its current owner and was previously used as a vacation home. It's perfect for one or two occupants. One bedroom, one 3/4 bath and a sweet open living/dining/kitchen. The wood interior walls are soft to the touch from many hours of careful craftsmanship. A new deck and mudroom were added in 2023 along with easy-care flooring. Climb into the hide-a-way, secret room with a new pull-down staircase that's so easy to handle. The room is beautifully finished in wood & there's storage under the eaves (see photos). Yoga room? Play room? Office? Storage? Located privately but only 5 min. from 2 wonderful country stores. Craftsbury feels like a town lost in time with its village green surrounded by colonial homes and public library. Bring the kayak and enjoy tranquil waters located close-by and in winter you just might find Olympic hopefuls x-country skiing at the nearby Craftsbury Ski Center which is open to the public. The lot is nicely landscaped and home to some giant maples as well as newer fruit trees planted by this owner. There are large, above-ground containers for vegetable gardening. Feel safe with a stand-by, propane generator that will take care of you if the power goes out. A Rinnai Heater will keep you cozy/warm in the winter months. The electric fireplace adds ambiance to the already snuggly interior. What are you waiting for? It's the total package!
