1268 County RoadWindsor, VT 05089Price: $475,000

Pull off County Road and the gravel goes quiet under the tires as 16.35 acres in Windsor, Vermont open in grass, timber, and sky. Hubbard Brook moves through the land with water over stone, cool in the shade and bright where the light finds it, and a snowmobile trail crosses the acreage when winter takes the fields. I-91 sits close enough that the Upper Valley is an easy reach. That is 1268 County Road before anyone touches a doorknob. Stand long enough to smell the wet bank and feel how much ground comes with the house, then go inside to the finished second floor you can use tonight: two bedrooms, two full baths, and a primary suite that takes real space. The walk-in closet is the size of a room and the laundry lives in that closet, so the suite keeps its own rhythm. The primary bath does not force a choice. A jetted tub with a built-in water warmer and a separate walk-in shower mean steam or a long soak with tile underfoot, and two electric fireplaces add a low glow on cold nights. Sellers upgraded the electrical throughout to 200 amp service, and two propane hot-air furnaces split the house by level, the larger one warming the finished floor and the smaller one waiting on the first floor. That first floor is unfinished on purpose, bare rooms and open air where the next owner can draw walls, add square footage, and let the house grow into the acreage. One honest note belongs up front: the roof and the siding both need to be replaced, and with an appropriate offer the seller will escrow funds to complete that work. More photos will follow as belongings are packed and rooms open up. What you are buying is 16.35 acres, a finished floor that works, a first floor to invent, a 200 amp panel, a drilled well with softener and sediment filter, municipal sewer, cable internet, a carport, decks, and a plan for new roof and siding. Come for the land, stay for the suite, and leave with brook sound still in your head. 1268 County Road, Windsor, VT 05089. House plus 16.35 acres.
