For rent is this this private 18.3 acre property offering the perfect balance of wooded privacy, open space, and classic Vermont charm. Stone walls, mature perennial gardens, walking trails, and a meandering stream create a peaceful setting. The thoughtfully designed home offers 2,721 square feet of living space with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. A soaring brick fireplace anchors the open living area, while hardwood floors, natural wood finishes, and large windows create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The open floor plan flows into a bright sunroom where woodland views and seasonal mountain vistas become part of the living space. Outside, the property offers endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. There are several outbuildings including a former animal barn and a garden shed that offer excellent potential for studios, workshops, or a future ADU. A freestanding wood fired sauna provides the perfect place to unwind and take in the beautiful setting. In the woods you will also find a play structure that was a replica of the original home. Located just a short drive from the center of Putney, Vermont, you'll enjoy convenient access to local farms, hiking trails, the Putney School, Yellow Barn, Next Stage Arts, and the vibrant community that makes Putney one of Southern Vermont's most sought after towns.
