About this home

This wonderful Vermont Cape-style home has overlooked the Ottauquechee River and the former Woodstock woolen mill (now the 'new' mill and community pools and recreation center) since 1890. On long summer days, the sounds of children enjoying the swimming holes and tubing in the rapid runs below float up. The floor plan has been adapted to modern lifestyles across three levels. The main level, entered from the garden walkway or garage, connects to an open country kitchen via a mudroom, which flows into the dining area and living room, offering extraordinary upriver views west toward Killington. A spacious main-floor primary bedroom with an en suite bath opens to a riverside deck, and an expanse of lawn and gardens surrounds the residence. Upstairs are two large bedrooms with a shared bath and a reading loft overlooking the living room below. The walkout lower level includes another bedroom, a bath, a recreation room, and a laundry. The soothing music of the water rose to a crescendo in August 2011 as Hurricane Irene swept into Vermont as a tropical storm, resulting in a FEMA-designated 500-year flood event that inundated basements, as it did many homes in Woodstock and other river towns. Subsequently, the owners have replaced the lower-level sheetrock and boiler and have invested in an engineered barrier wall. The home is within walking distance of Village shops, restaurants, and resort amenities. A peaceful hideaway close to everything.
