The first floor includes a full bedroom and full bath. Upstairs, the second floor features a large bedroom, a cozy seating loft, a full bath, and an additional small bedroom. The walk-out lower level provides a spacious bedroom with full-size window, laundry area, utilities, and abundant storage. Entry to the home is through a covered porch into a well-designed mudroom with built-in bench seating, custom shelving for boots and shoes, and ample coat hooks--practical and charming. Outside, an insulated workshop/shed offers space for projects or storage. A fully prepared fenced garden awaits your vegetables and flowers. The lawn area provides room for play and relaxation, while the 9-foot-deep spring-fed pond invites swimming or quiet moments watching frogs and turtles. Beyond that, the remaining five acres of woodland stretch to the rear of the property, offering privacy, exploration, and nature at your doorstep. Williamstown MA and Bennington VT are easy fifteen and twenty minute rides as is skiing at Jiminy Peak. Albany and Troy are a simple 40-minute drive and NYC is a 3 hour drive. Altogether, this sturdily built and lovingly maintained home, with its acreage and abundant features, welcomes the next fortunate owners to step in and make it their own.
