Tucked at the end of a winding driveway on a dead end town road, this lovely 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath log home welcomes you, well out of the sight and sounds of road noise. A natural woodland buffer wraps every side, offering the kind of quiet where you only hear rustling leaves or the local owl. Just 4 miles from Morrisville's shops, services and activities, while a world away. Stowe's village and skiing options are ~14 miles off, Green River Reservoir is about four. Inside, sunlight pours into the main-floor living room and kitchen beneath a vaulted log ceiling. A newer wood fireplace insert promises snug winter evenings to supplement zoned baseboard heat on every level. Two bedrooms share an updated full bath. Above, a substantial loft makes an ideal home office, reading nook or simply storage space. The walk-out lower level gives everyone room to spread out and stay cozy: a huge finished family/billiards room is warmed by a 2025 pellet stove. Plus, a finished in-law suite offers a bedroom, large walk-in closet and full bath with updated lighting and fixtures, and laundry area. Outside, a 2.5-car garage and a shed corral your motor hobbies, recreation toys and lawn gear. Established crab apple trees, a stone wall and an adjacent meadow promote wildlife visitors. The care shows: new front deck and stairs, 2025 3-bedroom permitted mound system (tank, pump and field), 2025 covered porch, 2026 bath updates: tub surround, door, hardware and lighting, and fresh paint. Newer well pump and oil tank. Logs sandblasted, rechinked and sealed in 2018. Boiler inspected yearly. 2016 updated fiberglass oil tank. Loft's 491 sq.ft. excluded from total finished space. Showings begin immediately. Call/text for immediate assistance. Open House: Saturday, November 14, 10am-1pm.
