Iconic Vermont Farmhouse with Post and Beam Barn: Bring your horses.


PROPERTY ADDRESS

409 Spencer Hollow Rd Springfield, VT

Own an iconic farmhouse that is a living piece of Vermont history. Built in 1760, this stately home, sits on the corner of the historic Crown Point Road and Spencer Hollow Rd. It retains many of the features of homes of its era, including 12x12 windows, wide pine plank flooring and 3 fireplaces (One with the original crane and kettles). In this house, you can touch history, but enjoy modern comforts. Rock away a summer afternoon on the large front porch overlooking the mountains and a perennial garden. Grill your favorite meal on the added covered patio. The newer two car garage and 2015 pier and post barn afford plenty of room for horses, hay, a small RV, tools and your seasonal equipment. The cellar has a large workbench for tinkering on projects and room to store summer furniture. Need space for a large family, guests, or to just spread out your hobbies? Five possible bedrooms provide plenty of options. There is a full bathroom on both floors. All one floor living is also possible, with no stairs when you come in the back way. A covered breezeway provides shelter from the weather and easy access storage for wood. Spend your winters cozy by the Vermont Soapstone stove in the living room. The large maintenance items have already been done. Bring your family, your horses, and your green thumb! This lovely home is ready for you and special memories to come.
