- Description: Classic Vermont farmhouse nestled in the historic hamlet of West Brookfield, a welcoming and tight-knit community rich in local history and character. The neighborhood is home to a working seventh-generation family farm, the original schoolhouse, and a historic meeting house dating to the 1800s that continues to serve as a gathering place for community events. Come inside and discover a home that blends the charm and character of an earlier era with modern updates. Spacious living and dining rooms are filled with natural light and feature built-in cabinetry, while hardwood & softwood floors run throughout, including beautifully refinished original wide-plank flooring. The remodeled kitchen is both practical and inviting, with a substantial soapstone sink, center island with generous storage, updated appliances, and a nearly new woodstove. Doors from the kitchen provide easy access to both the front and back porches. The first floor offers two bathrooms and the potential for convenient one-level living with a first-floor bedroom. One of the bathrooms is part of a beautiful, vaulted space over the garage that offers exceptional flexibility and could serve as a fourth bedroom, studio, home office or multi-generational living. Upstairs, two bedrooms feature charming built-in dressers, with an additional bathroom conveniently located at the top of the stairs. A newly renovated and insulated mudroom/laundry area provides a comfortable transition between the garage and the main house. Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard, deck, fire pit, chicken coop, mature apple trees, lilacs, and an abundance of established perennials. A wonderful opportunity to own a home with genuine Vermont character in a special historic community, conveniently located just 9 miles from Randolph and 10 miles from Northfield & I-89.
