Tucked along a country road just beyond the village, shopping center and Pingree Park, this charming cedar shake Cape combines historic New England character with remarkable energy efficiency. Thoughtfully renovated with a comprehensive deep-energy retrofit, the home offers modern comfort while preserving its vintage appeal, including exposed hand-hewn beams and original architectural details dating back more than 125 years. Extensive improvements include insulated walls and foundation, an R-90 attic, standing seam metal roof, upgraded electrical service, heat pumps for efficient heating and cooling, a rebuilt chimney with stainless liner, and a 6 kW rooftop solar array. The result is a comfortable, low-maintenance home with exceptionally low operating costs and net-zero energy potential. Inside, warm living spaces blend historic charm with modern conveniences. Updates over the years include improved electrical systems, added indows and replaced windows where needed, renovated stairs, updated fixtures, and newer appliances. A wood stove hook up adds potential for additional ambiance and supplemental heat. Outside, the property offers a spring-fed pond, mature woodland, perennial gardens, raised beds, and a stone patio with fire ring for enjoying Vermont's four seasons. Though modest in size, the setting feels expansive with neighboring open fields and woods providing a sense of connection to nature. Located in the heart of the Southern Green Mountains, the property is just minutes from Bromley, Magic, Stratton and Okemo Mountains, and countless hiking, biking, cross-country skiing, and paddling destinations nearby. Weston Village, Manchester, and Chester are all within easy reach, offering theater, dining, shopping, and year-round cultural events. An uncommon opportunity to own an adorable and highly efficient Vermont home near town where historic character, sustainability, and four-season recreation come together in one convenient location.
