This one-of-a-kind Vermont property offers three dwellings on 5.6 acres - each blending elevated aesthetics, thoughtful design, and a true connection to nature. The 2011 main house features an open layout and handcrafted finishes throughout. The kitchen boasts soapstone countertops and custom cherry cabinetry. A very special wood-fired masonry heater anchors the living space and a spacious covered porch overlooks the surrounding gardens. Capacious storage, wine and root cellars, and a walkout entry are in the full-sized, unfinished basement. A beautifully renovated cottage with deck and outdoor tub provides a second home, guest space, or continued short-term rental opportunity. Across the landscaped grounds, the yurt delivers an unforgettable Vermont experience complete with an outdoor shower and soaking tub—a guest favorite and steady income source. Outside, the property is graced with mature perennial gardens, established vegetable and medicinal plant gardens, and a three-stall horse barn, offering endless opportunities for homesteading, hobby farming, or gracious country living. With a proven track record as a very successful short-term rental, the entire property is impeccably maintained. A primary home with income potential, a multi-unit investment, or a peaceful retreat to share with others, 135 Fred Houghton Road captures the essence of Vermont living—handcrafted beauty, self-sufficiency, and modern comfort surrounded by nature. STR income available upon request.
