Off-grid living with a gorgeous view, 20+/- acres to explore, and the best part: you can enjoy that wonderful sense of being away from it all without feeling like you're miles and miles from everything. Set in the beautiful Brighton countryside, this charming home offers privacy, open land, woods, and a setting that feels distinctly Vermont, while the village of Island Pond and an incredible variety of outdoor recreation are still within easy reach - just minutes to the VAST Trail. Inside, warm wood features give the home a cozy, inviting character. The main level is open and comfortable, bringing the kitchen, dining area, and living room together in one easy gathering space. A woodstove adds to the warmth, while windows draw your attention outside to the yard and beautiful long-range view beyond. A full bath completes the main level, with two bedrooms upstairs. The land is every bit as appealing as the house. A beautiful fenced garden is ready for vegetables, flowers, or a little of both, and with 20+/- acres, there is plenty of room to roam, explore the woods, or simply enjoy having your own piece of the Northeast Kingdom. A detached garage provides additional storage, while the separate workshop is a standout for anyone who loves to build, create, repair, or spend time on a favorite hobby. Tall ceilings provide great working space, and large picture windows facing the view make this an especially enjoyable place to spend the day. The home is solar powered, offering the opportunity to embrace an off-grid lifestyle in a setting that still keeps you connected to the surrounding community. Brighton and Island Pond are known for outdoor recreation, with nearby opportunities for hiking, paddling, swimming, boating, fishing, biking, and snowmobiling. Private, peaceful, and wonderfully scenic, this is a property for anyone looking for a little more land, a little more independence, and a whole lot of Vermont outside the door.
