947 Natural Turnpike Ripton, VT 05766

Move-in ready, this charming cape is recently updated and situated on a delightful Ripton lot nine miles from downtown Middlebury. A large open kitchen / eating area has wide-pine floors, a walk-in pantry and beautiful views. The living room has a working wood-burning fireplace. A first-floor bedroom is attached to a full bath including a claw foot tub and laundry. Three bedrooms and a bathroom (all remodeled in 2014) round out the upstairs. Wide pine floors have all been refinished throughout the home and an unheated mudroom offers extra storage and practicality. Other upgrades include a new furnace in 2010, a Jotul woodstove in 2008, and new hot water heater in 2017 and a new gas range in 2017. The corner lot features a small stream, many perennial flowers, a simple fire pit and privacy from neighbors on the paved street a mile from the Ripton village center. Enjoy winter with a short drive to the Middlebury College Snow Bowl and the Rikert Nordic Center or take in the Green Mountains on the National Forest Trails close by.
