Here's an amazing opportunity to own 500+ acres in the heart of the NEK with a 2016 cedar log home complete with a wrap-around covered porch overlooking a private 7-acre pond. The property features streams and fields, as well as acres of lovely woods with a network of trails for hiking, biking, Nordic skiing, snowshoeing, ATVing, snowmobiling, and wildlife viewing. Inside, the home's main level offers an open layout for the eat-in kitchen and living room, with the primary bedroom and en suite full bath at the back. Head upstairs to a large loft bedroom and then take the catwalk to a cozy sitting area or office with a balcony that would be an ideal spot for a hammock. The full walkout, daylight basement has a ¾ bath, with the remainder unfinished and ready for your ideas to create more living space with views of the pond. Several fields have been left wild, providing great bird nesting and wildlife habitat, but could be reclaimed for agricultural use. The property is enrolled in the current use program, keeping taxes affordable, and the forest management plan is good through 2032. Frontage on Baird Road, as well as Chamberlain Road and Route 58, opens up many possibilities for this stunning property. All this is just a short drive from Crystal Lake and Lake Willoughby, 18 miles from the Craftsbury Outdoor Center, and Burke Mountain or Jay Peak are less than 40 minutes away for skiing, riding, and so much more. Come discover this wonderland that will enchant you all year round
