About This Home
Nestled in the heart of the Mad River Valley, this property is more than just land and buildings it’s a chance to shape your dreams. Here, the tranquil flow of the Mill Brook sets the soundtrack, while the sweeping views of Wu Ledges remind you daily of the beauty that surrounds you. For those seeking a home, it offers privacy, gardens bursting with color, a welcoming fieldstone patio, and the shade of mature trees. Imagine mornings with coffee in hand, the sounds of water drifting through the air, and evenings spent under starlit skies. It’s not just a place to live, it’s a place to breathe. For those with a vision, the property is already steeped in history and success. For over 25 years, its walls have carried the warmth of healing, serving as a beloved massage therapy practice. It's not in the process of being converted back to a single family home, with a new kitchen being installed. And the future is wide open—recent rezoning has approved the addition of up to four more dwelling units. Whether you dream of creating a wellness retreat, an inspiring community hub, or a residential haven with rental opportunities, the foundation is already here. Step outside and you’ll find yourself perfectly positioned—walking distance to the Mad River Path, restaurants, shops, the new Recreation & Mountain Biking Hub. Just a short drive brings you to the legendary slopes of Sugarbush Resort and Mad River Glen. This is more than property, it's a canvas.
