Perched high on a hill in a private Newfane setting, this charming cottage enjoys southerly views across the surrounding mountains. A special property, it combines classic cottage character with comfortable, thoughtfully designed living spaces and several versatile outbuildings. The main house welcomes you with a large mudroom/laundry room with an adjacent full bath, leading into a spacious kitchen and dining area. The kitchen features distinctive black-and-white checked flooring, wood countertops, a center island, ceramic farm sink and a large picture window framing the beautiful mountain view. A door opens directly to the covered porch, creating an inviting spot for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the scenery. The living room is warm and inviting, with hardwood flooring, exposed beams, a handsome stone fireplace with propane insert, and charming cottage-style windows on either side. The first floor also offers a lovely primary bedroom with wood flooring, an enormous walk-in closet, and a beautifully appointed en-suite bath featuring porcelain tile and an oversized shower. Upstairs, the flexible layout can function as two bedrooms (as it has in the past), with a walk-through from one to the other, or as a spacious second-floor suite with a private bedroom and adjoining sitting room. Outside, the property offers an impressive large barn with space that can accommodate an RV, providing excellent possibilities for storage, or hobbies. A separate, guest cottage/studio with heat and air conditioning adds even more flexibility for guests, work, or creative pursuits (it does not have plumbing). Privately situated yet close to the village amenities of historic Newfane, this is a distinctive Vermont property with beautiful views, wonderful character, and exceptional versatility. A wonderful home in a wonderful location!!!
