NOW $759,900. Five acres, 2,876 finished square feet, 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, Adirondack views and an oversized 28x40 garage and workshop, just 10 minutes from Middlebury. Set on a former orchard in West Cornwall Village, this custom built home offers a combination that is increasingly difficult to find this close to Middlebury: generous living space, usable acreage, a substantial garage and workshop, privacy and long western views. Built by the owner, a professional carpenter, the home was designed to take advantage of its setting and offers multiple living and dining spaces with flexibility for gathering, working from home, hobbies or simply spreading out. The newly finished sunroom is a standout addition, with oversized windows overlooking the property, a gas fireplace and heat pump. A 3 season side entry with pellet stove provides another useful flex space, while the finished lower level adds approximately 280 square feet with a lounge, wood stove and New Hampshire stone accents. Outside, mature apple trees, berry patches, cedar privacy plantings and open lawn are bordered by neighboring conserved farmland. Wildlife, open skies and Adirondack sunsets are part of the setting. The oversized 28x40 garage and workshop is a significant property feature, with a vehicle lift, second floor space and room for vehicles, equipment, woodworking, hobbies and storage. The location adds another layer of value. Downtown Middlebury, Middlebury College, Porter Medical Center and the 18 hole Ralph Myhre Golf Course are approximately 10 minutes away. Middlebury Snowbowl and Rikert Outdoor Center put downhill and Nordic skiing within an easy drive, while Lake Champlain, hiking trails, restaurants, shops and everyday services are all readily accessible. Five acres, nearly 2,900 finished square feet, flexible living space, an exceptional garage and workshop, western mountain views and Middlebury close by. A lot of property and possibility at the new price of $759,900.
