Description
Quiet seclusion, view of the mountains, sounds of the Mettawee River and less than a mile to the Dorset village green. This beautifully maintained property has a recently renovated four bedroom main house, one bedroom guest cottage and studio set on a pastoral landscape of 43 acres. Located in the highly desirable Dorset Hollow, it has some of the best trails and walking loops out the back door. Throughout the house, the rich patina of antique wood floors and attention to detail brings the past and the present into harmony. The screened in porch and stone terrace connect the inside with the outside. The spacious, light-filled kitchen has room for twelve people to eat comfortably and plenty of workspace to prepare the meals. The kitchen is a favorite spot to congregate and watch birds at the winter feeders and features a full view of the Mettawee. Part of the recent renovations include the addition of the Primary Bedroom Suite on the main level. Designed by Bennington architect, Michael Baker, it blends seamlessly with the main house, while adding height, exposed beams and easterly views of the Green Mountains. The over-sized window frames magnificent views of the garden, pool, back pasture and Netop Mountain. This includes a redesign of the library with an extensive addition of bookshelves, slate floor and access to the heated, salt-water pool. High speed internet & A/C. 1,000 ft of river frontage for fishing and swimming, walking/hiking paths, berry bushes.
