This contemporary cape with classic Vermont lines is built on the history and character of two fully reconstructed antique post & beam frames. Architect designed, premier builder, and unquestionably one of the nicest homes in Woodstock. It has a newer cedar shake roof and has been completely re-sided with beautiful cedar shingles in 2019. There is beautiful interior space, newly created guest quarters, four working fireplaces, high-end master bathroom finishes, and 55.76 acres of playground. Soaring cathedral ceilings, a gourmet kitchen with a huge walk-in pantry, 6 burner Wolf gas stove, a large double door Sub-Zero refrigerator, and even space for a kitchen herb garden. The look and feel is classic Vermont charm with all the modern conveniences of the 21st century. Five (5) bedrooms, four (4) bathrooms, and over 6,000 sq-ft of living space finished to an exacting level of detail. The massive central stone fireplace, magnificent P&B frames, and old wide plank floors make this a one of a kind Woodstock retreat. The grounds have a duck pond, ancient stone walls, mature maple trees, a four car garage, a substantial 4-stall timber frame horse barn with hay storage, and 20 acres of open meadows. Happy Valley Road is on the exclusive easterly side of town with quick access to major metro hubs and downtown Woodstock. Close to trails for biking, hiking, snowmobiling, or horseback riding. This private setting is just gorgeous and the perfect quintessential Vermont retreat.
