The interiors are bright and well-appointed with a sizable chef's kitchen that steps down into a formal dining room surrounded by windows and a walk-out to the landscaped grounds and gardens. Adjoining the kitchen and dining room is an expansive living room with wood-burning fireplace which opens through French doors to a lovely covered porch/patio and in-ground swimming pool. Rounding out the first floor is a light-filled office to the front of the house and a functional laundry/mudroom entry from the breezeway to the attached two-car garage. An en suite primary bedroom with wood-burning stove on the second floor is complemented by two additional bedrooms with a shared bath, while a versatile open space on the uppermost level is perfectly suited for a rec room or additional living space.

Hanover is home to Dartmouth Health, boutique shopping outlets, fabulous food, and more. One of its main attractions is Dartmouth College (one of the Ivy Leagues and the ninth oldest college in the nation), and in part due to its youthful atmosphere, the town enjoys a lively, 'New England cosmopolitan' business district. Hanover offers an incredible mix of activities from access to the White and Green Mountains to its arts and culture community not to mention the obvious intellectual benefits found in a college town.

Woodstock, Vermont is the quintessential New England historic town. It sits in a valley surrounded by low-lying hills that nestle rather than overwhelm, and is a community snuggled around the Ottauquechee River. Woodstock is home to many excellent shops and restaurants, the Woodstock Inn & Resort, a great middle and high school, and it never fails to serve as an incredible place to go for a walk or meet someone for coffee.
Those who choose to reside near Woodstock continue to be some of the most educated in the world, some of the most accomplished “captains of industry” in the country. You’ll find filmmakers, war correspondents, writers, artists, military experts, doctors, high-tech entrepreneurs, rock stars, equestrians and happy soccer moms and dads all grabbing a coffee in town. Woodstock also attracts its fair share of Dutch, English and French, many of whom are reminded of home by the gentle hills, winding dirt roads, cows, sheep and horses in pastures next to beautiful weathered barns. Even if it’s not the old country, it has the feel of a place with deep roots.

Quechee is the site of Quechee Gorge on the Ottauquechee River and is also the home to the Quechee Lakes planned community initiated in the late 1960s, which brought to the community the small Quechee Lakes Ski Area in the 1970s. The ski area has 13 trails and 3 lifts. Perched atop the falls of the Ottauquechee River, overlooking a covered bridge, Simon Pearce offers glassblowing demonstrations, a renowned restaurant, and new bar. In addition to the restaurant at Simon Pearce, The Parker House is another great option for dining.
