217 south perry road, Barnard, VT 05091

This spacious, well-maintained Gambrel-style home is designed for gracious country living, with a post-and-beam frame that creates large gathering spaces accented by two fireplaces, thoughtful features, and abundant natural light. The private parcel, landscaped with perennials and flowering shrubs, is positioned on a rise overlooking the Barnard Valley towards Woodstock, a few miles south. The location offers a highly desirable balance of privacy and proximity to all resort amenities, shopping, schools, and services, all within a few minutes' drive. A versatile floor plan can be configured with 3 or 4 bedrooms, each capturing views of the surrounding countryside. The superb eat-in kitchen with a breakfast bar is central to the home, surrounded by a dining area and a family room with a well-equipped entertainment center. A separate living room connects to places for celebrating the seasons: a bluestone-paved patio in summer and a greenhouse addition with ideal solar exposure, providing a welcome source of warmth and light in winter. Highlights include updates focused on energy efficiency and modern living, such as high-speed fiber-optic service, an airtight wood stove, a gas fireplace, a heat pump water system, and Tesla batteries, which add resilience. Close to miles of trails, skiing, golf, fishing, and all of Vermont's outdoor attractions.
