Tucked away on 2.6 acres of woodlands like The Nest that it is, this cozy, traditional home makes a wonderful base for your Vermont adventures. Whether you're planning to hike the surrounding forest, catch spectacular fall foliage, or ski Mad River Glen and Sugarbush Resort, you'll be greeted back at home each day by a private hot tub and a crackling wood stove.

The setting is quiet and secluded - a place to spend summer mornings on the second-story 360-degree wraparound deck, listening to the sounds of birdsong and the babble of a neighboring brook. Yet you'll also be incredibly close to Mad River Glen (three miles), Mt. Ellen (four miles), and Sugarbush Resort (six miles), with an on-site EV charger making transportation all the easier.

The warmer months are for lingering outdoors - walking your dogs in the mornings, barbecuing in the afternoons, and roasting marshmallows around the firepit before slipping into the hot tub in the evenings. The winter is every bit as inviting, thanks to plush sofas, smart TVs, a woodstove to warm you, and plentiful windows framing the forest dusted in snow.

At night, find three bedrooms paired with three full bathrooms. Bonus features include a washer/dryer, large mudroom, electric vehicle charger, UV air purifier, a propane furnace with forced-air central heating, a MERV13 air filter, three dog runs, and a dog gate at the ground level deck.

Please note: this home resides in a noise-sensitive area and the owners participate in our Good Neighbor protection program. Our smart home technology will alert our team if excessive decibel or occupancy levels are detected, allowing us to reach out directly with a reminder of maximum occupancy and quiet hours. This technology is privacy compliant, and only monitors the presence of decibels and devices-not any personal conversation or information. Thank you for supporting our efforts to be good neighbors!

Damage waiver: The total cost of your reservation for this Property includes a nightly damage waiver fee, plus tax if applicable (the “Damage Waiver”).
