Spectacular village home that must be seen to be believed. The gorgeous kitchen with granite counter and island, extraordinary fireplace in the library, and the breathtaking woodwork throughout cannot be missed. This brick beauty, formerly owned by Luther B. Harris, offers a highly functional kitchen with exposed brick, farmers sink, plenty of room on the granite counters, and an island with prep sink. Intricate woodwork and built-ins in the formal dining room span from floor to ceiling. The library boasts stunning wood-paneled ceilings, built-in bookshelves, and woodwork perfectly matched to the extraordinary fireplace. Rounding out the main level is the newly added propane fireplace insert to complete the cozy living room, the main floor bedroom, full bath and office space with a separate entrance and ½ bath. Three spacious bedrooms and a ¾ bathroom complete the upstairs. As a bonus, the two ground-level apartments are currently rented. Outside enjoy the gazebo, a beautiful lawn, and storage space in the barn. Don't let this opportunity pass by you.

Kelly?
I think you got the images mixed up.
The interior images cannot be from the same house shown in the exterior images!
Chestatee, GA
Nope, those are the listing images. Unexpected ain’t it?
Noblesville, IN
No kidding. I almost didn’t click on it. Dang. The parlor and DR look like they belong in the Twain house or Sagamore Hill. Looks like someone had those rooms re-fashioned right around the turn of the century. Great fireplace, (though probably pretty smoky – and maybe a BIT large for this low ceilinged environ – though I do like it – and it does work). Another great tea house. What a surprise!
It is a crazy-amazing contrast!
The exterior looks like it was resurfaced by the sort of guys (underemployed masons?) who apparently went around putting brick cladding on earlier frame-built houses back in the 1930’s…there are a number of properties in Providence, RI, that got this treatment.
That giant arched FP is something else, but doesn’t succeed in design terms–it’s way too big for the room, and way too robust for the finely-detailed surrounding woodwork!
NY
Yeah, that is one COMMANDING fireplace.
I honestly thought the same thing.
Holy wood-paneling, Batman!
Nashville, TN
Wow…that rather subdued exterior did not prepare me for the OTT woodwork and fireplace on the first floor. Amazing. Did they rebuild the exterior? ! I mean seriously!?
Wow! What an incredible house. Would love to have it.
Whoa… that library is really something!
Absolutely stunning!
This house gave me whiplash!
I was thinking the same ! That first floor gave me a slap in the face after the sedate exterior !
MI
Whoa ! didn’t see that coming, I almost zipped right past this but glad I had that second thought. What a spectacular home.
Holy moley I was not expecting that! What a simply breathless home!!! Such an amazing find Kelly. Well done. I could stare at at the fireplace forever. Such a gem.
Langeais, Loire Valley,
Oh WOW! the outside doesn’t let one expect what’s inside!! incredible!
There’s a lot going on in this place!
This house blew me away too. I almost didn’t click on it either. The woodworking is breathtaking! My husband and I live in Asheville NC, there is an historical home called Cedar Crest Inn that has incredible woodworking too. Check it out http://www.CedarCrestInn.com.
We were told some of the same craftsmen who did the woodworking in The Biltmore House also did woodworking for this house. Truly amazing! You never get tired of admiring it.
Good thing I was sitting down… this one could’ve knocked me over with surprise! Such an unexpected interior! I agree with the poster who said the scale of that fireplace is off for the rest of the room, but it’s still beautiful nevertheless. And as VT is my favorite place in the world (yup, the whole state), if you twisted my arm, I guess I’d take this house…. LOL!
What’s with the big concrete slab in front of the house, though? Is there a porch missing?
Talk about opening a gift you thought was something else! Wow!
ME
I’m looking through the pictures of this house and BAM! I almost fall out of bed at the interior pictures. Wow. My brother went to college in Lyndon right around the corner from this house. It is a very nice town with a busy ski community in winter. Quite a beautiful area as well with some really good restaurants. What else could you need?

Posted 2017, looks like it sold since but it’s back on the market (not a flip.) Updated and moved to the front page.
Otis Orchards, WA
Ditto on the earlier posts! I was not expecting the interior we are seeing!
Take a peek on Google Streetview for a fun little surprise on this one.
Chestatee, GA
Cute, eh? Wish I were that creative!
Step into that big ole fireplace sprinkle some flue & say in a clear voice “Diagon Alley”.
Yes, the interior pics were NOT what I expected either…..
