Beside a brook, under a canopy of trees, utter peace and quiet reign in this woodland retreat, a peace accented by the bubbling of the brook and the wind rustling through the trees. Though you are remote from the bustle of town, this retreat actually lies less than a mile from Rt 30 and is only an eight-minute drive from Brattleboro. Curl up in front of the wood stove in the great room that houses the kitchen, dining area and living room. Above, a loft provides extra sleeping space and a cozy hide-away. To the side of the great room you will find two bedrooms, one with a slider to the deck. Next to the full bathroom stands a washer and dryer. A newer addition of a studio/office is attached by way of the screened in breezeway. This studio boasts a loft providing additional sleeping space. With its five mini-stained glass windows and its sliding glass door leading to a tiny brook-side patio, it could not be more charming. If that weren’t enough, there are two outbuildings, a woodshed, a recessed picnic area by the brook, and a wood-fired sauna. Sit on the sauna’s deck overlooking a spectacular view of the water and read a book or, better still, let the beauty overtake you and do nothing at all. Come enjoy this rustic, simple retreat eight minutes to Brattleboro and only 30 minutes to skiing at Mt Snow. Showings start May 17th.
