Description
Lovingly restored over the past 25 years, this 1890 quintessential Victorian farmhouse offers the best of both worlds - a convenient location w/in walking distance to Jericho Market, Deborah Rawson Library, Mills Riverside Park, Browns River Middle School & Underhill ID pre-school and playground via new town sidewalks, and a private 20 acre prop featuring expansive fields and 2 ponds fed year round by a freshwater spring. Enjoy private walking, snowshoeing and x-country skiing paths to the Alder Brook that marks the property's northwest boundaries.The home was originally designed and built by wood craftsman Edward Sinclair and features original woodwork and trim, crown molding, plaster walls and a formidable stone foundation. Sinclair was a building contractor who built several Queen Anne Victorian style homes in the area including the Sinclair Inn which sits a 1/2 mi west in Jericho.The property includes a large former dairy barn, most of which dates to the mid 1800s w/ large hand-hewn hemlock timbers. Structurally sound, the barn is ready for the next phase of farm life. "Carriage house" has many uses;now serving as an artist's studio (insulated & heated). Also ideal for home office.Underhill is highly regarded for its excellent school systems & its pristine bucolic beauty. The Underhill State Park is the primary access to hiking trails & and cross country skiing trails of Mt. Mansfield and 30 minutes to smugglers ski area.
