Property Description

This listing courtesy of Kristin Comeau, TPW Real Estate

In 1922, poet laureate and Shaftsbury resident Robert Frost was inspired by the bucolic local backroads to write “Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening." The Dexter Road Farmhouse, dating back 225 years, remains a testament to the enduring charm of Vermont and the simpler rhythms of country life. Nestled at the end of a serene, tree-lined town road, this charming 1800 farmhouse captures the timeless beauty of rural Vermont. With sweeping vistas, peaceful surroundings, and a perfect balance of seclusion and convenience to all the Northshire region has to offer, this property is a rare gem. Lovingly cared for by the same family for over 70 years, the home retains much of its original character and craftsmanship, including wide pine flooring, original moldings, classic woodwork, and a gracious entrance hall. Traditional wall and ceiling boards further enhance the home's authentic farmhouse allure. With 40 acres more or less and a picturesque skating pond, there's ample room to explore, garden, or enjoy the pastoral landscape. The spacious layout features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, an inviting country kitchen, a formal dining room, a living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a library, and a bonus room. The windowed office on the lower level overlooks the pond and includes a Murphy bed. We invite you to discover the timeless appeal of this exceptional property, explore the quiet beauty of Shaftsbury, and consider making this charming farmhouse your home in Vermont.
