Set at the end of a quiet country road in Barnard, this distinctive Vermont retreat offers an exceptional combination of privacy, acreage and sweeping long-range mountain views. Surrounded by mature woodland, open meadow and expansive sky, the setting feels wonderfully removed while remaining within reach of Barnard Village, Woodstock and the Upper Valley. The home was designed to take full advantage of its surroundings. Expansive windows and glass doors bring the landscape into the main living spaces, where hardwood floors, natural woodwork and a fireplace create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The living, dining and sitting areas flow comfortably together and open onto a generous deck overlooking the meadow, forest and distant ridgelines. The kitchen is substantial and well suited for entertaining, with extensive cabinetry and counter space, a large center island, farmhouse sink and professional-style Viking range. Flexible rooms on the main level can accommodate guests, office space, exercise use or additional bedrooms, while a dedicated laundry and utility area adds everyday practicality. Upstairs, vaulted ceilings, skylights and curved architectural details create a bright and distinctive interior. The primary suite is especially memorable, with broad windows framing the mountain view directly from the bedroom. The adjoining bath includes a freestanding soaking tub, dual vessel sinks, a large tiled shower and generous dressing and closet space. Outside, the broad deck and covered porch create inviting places to enjoy morning coffee, summer evenings and Vermont's changing seasons. Barnard is known for Silver Lake, its beloved general store, with easy access to hiking, skiing and four-season recreation throughout Central Vermont. Woodstock, Hanover and Dartmouth are all within comfortable reach. Private, peaceful and filled with character, this is a home where the setting becomes part of everyday life.
