PROPERTY ADDRESS

6 Pike Hill Rd. Topsham, VT

In the heart of a timeless and quintessential Vermont village scene is this sweet, extensively renovated Cape. The first floor offers a spacious new kitchen and, in the original section of the house, a dining room with French doors, a sitting room with a hearth and woodstove, and a living room with floor to ceiling bay windows. Down the hall off the kitchen is the new first floor bedroom, which looks out to the Waits River.

From your living room and one of the upstairs bedrooms you will have views of one of the most photographed churches in New England and of sunrises down the valley. The master bedroom upstairs also offers a skylight and three closets.

Outside, sit along the banks of the river, under a Willow or Maple tree or on the large deck, perfect for grilling. Also enjoy gardening in an established plot and the pear, cherry, and apple trees and the strawberry bed. The detached barn is great for a workshop or for additional storage. There is also a garage/shed with an attached chicken coop.

The house is set back and uphill from the river and is not in the flood zone (and was not affected during Irene). A new septic tank was installed in 2010 and a new propane furnace in 2013. All but one of the windows in the house are now thermopane, including the large window over the sink in the kitchen that looks out to the back yard and river.

In the heart of Waits River Village, you are walking distance to a swimming hole, hiking and cross country ski trails on land trust land, the Methodist church, and the general store. Only five minutes down the road is the ski hill at Northeast Slopes. At the same time, you are only 16 miles from Barre and within 45 minutes of Lebanon, Montpelier, and St. Johnsbury. This house would either be a perfect year round home -- or a tranquil retreat for those hoping to enjoy a second home. Either way, experience country living at its best!
