118 Gills Rd Barnard, VT 05031

Nestled on 13.8 acres of rolling woodland and open field, this property is sited at the beginning of a dead end road, ensuring peace and privacy, yet is only a stone's throw from (and has frontage on) paved North Road. A spacious mud room leads to an open kitchen with soapstone countertops and a dining area with wood stove and cathedral ceilings showcasing the post and beam construction of the original 2003 build. A 3-season sun room with screens for summer brings the outdoors in. The dining area leads seamlessly to the heart of the home, an addition thoughtfully completed in 2018 comprising a family room with large windows, gas fireplace and coffee nook w/ wet bar. On the opposite end of the house, you'll find a wonderful 1st floor bedroom suite with 3/4 bath with roll-in shower, bedroom, and sitting room. The 1st floor also has a 1/2 bath and laundry. The main staircase leads to an open loft perfect for game room or exercise space, an office, and 2 bedrooms that share a 3/4 bath. The primary bedroom can be accessed from the loft or from a separate set of stairs and features a full bath with shower and separate soaking tub and a walk-in closet. The functional basement can be used as a workshop or storage area. An attached 2 bay garage and a carport round off the main structure. Outside, you'll also find a handy garden shed and 5-bay barn. The grounds feature mature plantings, maples, stone walls, field, and a small brook. Easy access to skiing, Silver Lake, and Woodstock.
