66 Elm Street, Norwich, VT
$1,350,000
Property Overview
Located less than a quarter mile from the town green, 66 Elm Street in Norwich is just a stone’s throw from the center of town, yet has the peace and privacy of a home in the rural hills. This 1830’s cape has been completely renovated in the last 5 years, maintaining it’s antique charm but now complete with high-end finishes, modern systems, beautifully crafted spaces, and energy efficiency. Local designer Susan Chew has put her stamp on the house, with a new color palette, carrara marble tops and new fixtures in all of the baths, and of course the bright and airy kitchen, with stunning Aurea Stone countertops and top of the line appliances. The Living Room/Dining Room has warmth and light in all seasons, and connects to the 3-season porch, a wonderful spot for coffee or cocktails while listening to the brook below. Upstairs there are 4 lovely bedrooms, with a primary en-suite complete with home office. Outside, the grounds have been designed by award-winning local landscape architect Shep Butler, including hand-pointed stone walls and pathways, extensive flower gardens, box hedge, mature privacy screening trees, maples, yellowwoods, and crab apple trees. And don’t forget the adjoining Warner Meadow - a secret, virtually private nature preserve abutting the property with a mowed path around its edge and a lovely stream which is swimmable in the summertime. With just over an acre of land (which is quite large for an in-town property) it feels more like ten acres: true peace and privacy yet so close to everything. Just minutes to downtown Hanover, DHMC medical center, and all of the region’s amazing opportunities.
About the Area
Norwich is a town with rich tradition, a diverse population, excellent schools, and access to everything the upper valley has to offer. Stop by Dan and Whit's general store for anything and everything on a daily basis. Their motto is "If we don't have it, you don't need it". The Norwich Inn and Brew Pub provide a place to stay for visiting guests, local gatherings, great food, and wonderful craft beer. Carpenter and Main is the spot for high-end dining set in a 200-year old federal-style building, and don't miss a trip to King Arthur Flour for baking supplies, fresh prepared foods, or to take a class from their world-renowned baking school. No trip to Norwich would be complete without stopping by the Norwich Farmer's Market every Saturday from 9-1 (located on Rt 5 South from May-October, inside Tracy Hall in downtown Norwich the rest of the year) for fresh meats, vegetables, cheeses, and crafts.
