Set on . 76 acres in the peaceful Chester VT countryside, this former schoolhouse offers timeless farmhouse charm, rich history, and a setting that feels both private and inviting. Framed by classic stone walls, a pond site, and a gently wooded backdrop, the home sits just off a main road, providing easy access to town while maintaining a quiet, pastoral atmosphere. Originally serving the community as a schoolhouse until the early 1960s, the property was thoughtfully converted into a residence that honors its roots while offering comfortable modern living. The original schoolroom now anchors the home as a warm, open living space filled with natural light, where hardwood floors and tall windows create an airy yet cozy environment ideal for everyday living and gathering. The farmhouse-style kitchen flows seamlessly into the living area and features butcher block countertops, a professional-grade gas convection range with double ovens, and a breakfast bar with a charming pass-through window, perfect for casual meals and entertaining. A spiral staircase adds rustic character and leads to the upper level, offering a spacious bedroom or studio and flexible use for guests, creative space, or a private retreat. The primary suite serves as a peaceful sanctuary with vaulted ceilings, custom built-in shelving, a private full bath, and a cozy wood stove. Doors open to a rear deck overlooking the private yard and surrounding countryside. Additional features include a generous first-floor laundry area, enclosed sun porch, outdoor patio, a private hot tub with a heated walkway for truly maintenance-free winter access (no shoveling, ever!) and an attached two-car garage currently used as a game room, easily adapted back to garage space or reimagined as a workshop, studio, or home office. With commercial zoning, just 10 minutes from Okemo Mountain Resort, and a history as a successful Airbnb, this rare property offers character, flexibility, income potential, and true country charm.
