The CALEB ATWELL HOUSE

Description from the owner

Completely and authentically restored circa 1750 colonial home available year-round. Surrounded by thousands of uninhabited acres; property is secluded, yet easily accessible, located on quiet country road with the nearest neighbor 1/2 mile away, yet just a few miles from Rte. 110 and the typical Vermont small town of Washington.

Home is complete with wide-plank flooring, original beamed ceilings, and more, and includes two bedrooms (sleeps six comfortably), livingroom with fieldstone fireplace, den, modern full bath with tub shower, new half bath, new kitchen, and large flagstone rear patio. All conveniences including color TV, DV...D & VCR, stereo, telephone, microwave, dishwasher, washer and dryer, and tastefully furnished in a very comfortable decor.

Property includes private spring-fed pond ideal for swimming. Maple hedgerows, picturesque meadows, and nearby woodlands create an impressive Fall foliage display with magnificent views to the North. Far from the maddening crowd, the area is an ideal hiking and picnicing area and wildlife refuge, and is exceptionally well suited for cross country skiing. Horseback riding, fishing, golf, downhill skiing, quaint country auctions, antique and specialty shops are all within easy driving distance. Has been the site for several weddings and numerous honeymooners.
