This is not your average chalet. Tucked in the quiet Stratton View neighborhood, just 1 mile from the base of the Stratton Access Road, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the warmth and character of a classic Vermont chalet with updated systems, thoughtful improvements, and the things you have been looking for but can't seem to find: two living spaces and a garage - actually, two garages. Offered furnished and in immaculate condition, this is a home you can enjoy from day one. The great room features soaring ceilings, a wood-burning stove, beautiful beams, and flat-sawn balusters that add to the alpine feel. A recent two-story addition adds a one-bay garage and a large second living room with vaulted ceilings, creating an impressive gathering space. High-quality modern materials and systems, including a standing-seam roof, efficient mini-split heating and cooling, and cedar shakes, were used in the construction of this addition. Beyond the addition, the rest of the home has been thoughtfully modernized over time, including drainage around the house, improved insulation, updated mechanicals, an updated electrical system including a 200-amp electrical panel, stainless steel flue liners, a whole-house water filtration system, renovated kitchen and baths, a drilled well, modern septic components, and years of thoughtful site work. With a large mudroom that makes organizing gear easy and a great-sized laundry room that helps keep the house running and orderly, this home functions beautifully as either a primary residence or a vacation home. Step outside onto the deck, outfitted with a new awning, and take in the views of the pond. In addition to the new one-bay attached garage, there is a detached oversized 2-car garage measuring approximately 21' x 26', as well as a shed, so there is plenty of space to store vehicles and gear, or have a workshop. Located in the desirable town of Winhall with school choice. Make it your home and start enjoying Vermont this summer.
