Tucked away in the rolling hills of Marlboro, Vermont, this off-the-grid house sits on 8 plus acres of forest and meadowland, offering a perfect blend of rustic charm and sustainable living. Powered by a newer 48V Schneider solar power system, with a backup propane generator, the home is a self-sufficient sanctuary far from the hustle of modern life. An open concept floor plan offers much versatility, with a second-floor balcony overlooking the main level heated by a cozy wood stove. Reclaimed wood beams add warmth and character. The main level also has two bedrooms and a full bath. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features skylights, plenty of closet space and a full bath. Enter the walk-out basement into a large mudroom that leads to a family room or home office with a wood stove and built-in shelving. Outside is an oasis with cleared open space featuring a seasonal brook, a patio area with a dome wood-fire brick oven, a foot bridge, grape arbor, chicken coop, garden shed and many flowering fruit trees. A second floor has been added to the detached two-car garage—a perfect space for an office or home studio. Surrounded by towering maples, wildflowers, and trails that wind through the property, this self-sustaining chalet is an ideal retreat for anyone seeking solitude, with close proximity to Brattleboro, Dover and Wilmington. Subject to final subdivision.
