A private garden setting just minutes from the heart of Middlebury, this thoughtfully cared-for home offers an appealing combination of beauty, ease and understated elegance. Surrounded by mature hedgerows and spectacular gardens, the property feels wonderfully secluded while keeping the shops, restaurants and cultural life of Middlebury close at hand. Clean lines and a fresh, uncluttered aesthetic create an inviting backdrop for everyday living. The main level is especially well designed for convenience, with all bedrooms, bathrooms and laundry together on one floor including a "bonus" room adjacent to the dining room-perfect for gear/mudroom, an office or a walk-in pantry! The primary suite offers a generous walk-in closet and its own slate patio overlooking open fields and Chipman Hill, a lovely spot for morning coffee, an afternoon in the sun or watching the landscape change at sunset. The outdoor spaces are equally inviting. An expansive deck provides plenty of room for dining and gathering with friends, while the beautifully tended gardens offer a succession of color and texture throughout the seasons. There is something particularly satisfying about a home where even the practical pleasures, grilling dinner, enjoying a summer evening outdoors or hanging freshly washed sheets in the breeze feel a little more special. A full basement provides abundant storage, complemented by two storage sheds. The home is generator-ready and equipped with both an oil-fired boiler and two heat pumps/mini-splits as well as a wood burning insert in the dining room fireplace, offering flexibility for year-round comfort. Beautifully situated, exceptionally well maintained and close to everything that makes Middlebury such a desirable place to live, this is a home that quietly rewards you every day.
