Adorable, cozy, off-the-grid bungalow nestled in the Green Mountains of Central Vermont on 10.5 acres. Solidly built as an art studio and retrofitted into a small house with an open floor plan. This unique and magical future-forward home has two cozy bedrooms on the 2nd floor, a 1st-floor bathroom with shower and composting toilet, a full kitchen with tall windows, skylights for an abundance of natural light, modern touches, and energy-efficient features such as LED lighting, a powerful solar system which generates enough to power an electric car, a new woodstove, hefty insulation, and a standing seam roof. The home and land make up an electrifyingly gorgeous little paradise. The land has stone walls, shimmering birches, flowers and herb gardens, fire pits, peaceful private hammock sites, footbridges, and paths alongside a stream leading to the pond. There is a stone circle originally used for sacred dances in the yard. The private pond is 15 ft deep with a green clay base fed by two springs and a stream. It stays cold and fresh and is full of wildlife. It is an amazing place to unplug from the buzz of civilization or to use as a writer's retreat. The house is perfect as either a seasonal retreat or for those seeking an all-year lifestyle committed to sustainability and a low carbon footprint. Equidistant between Montpelier and So. Royalton.
