Cute, Renovated Historic Home on River, Walk to Downtown

Enjoy a unique stay in our renovated 165-year-old home while also enjoying small-town charm in Brandon, Vermont. Our 3-bedroom, riverfront home offers two, separate living spaces, air conditioning, a full kitchen, and a washer and dryer. For après ski, après hike, or après anything, walk downtown and enjoy the quaint, local restaurants and shops of Brandon.

Located on a quiet street, our home has been lovingly restored over 2 years. We worked hard to maintain the character of our old home while blending it with tasteful and modern updates. Renovations include a new kitchen with new appliances, two new bathrooms, sanded and refinished floors and new windows, and a giant wraparound deck out back.

Yet antique character can still be found in rustic exposed wood beams, uneven floors, and stairs that are a bit steeper than modern construction, packing this home full of charm!

Our home is a short 28 miles to Killington Ski Area, 14 miles to Mountain Top Resort in Chittenden, 22 miles to Pico Mountain, 41 miles from Okemo (ski) Resort, and 21 miles to Middlebury Snowbowl 19 miles to Chittenden Reservoir, and 16 miles to Middlebury College. For mountain bikers looking for flow trails, try Pine Hill Park in Rutland (16 m) and the Sherburne trails (24 m) near Killington. But the best part of this home, is afterwards, you can walk to Brandon and enjoy our local brewery and restaurants.

We do accommodate smaller dogs in our home. However, this is a strictly NON-SMOKING home, and we charge a fee for violation of this rule.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 1.5 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a desk.

Just lovely

This house was carefully renovated with a beautiful mixing of old and new. We came from Pa. to a watch our grandson in a basketball tournament. We had no idea that this was such a great town. From the house it was an easy walk to very good restaurants with convenient shopping and an excellent bakery. Would like to stay again just to explore the town.

family getaway

I booked the house for its 5-star reviews. location is good. it’s clean and bright. kitchen is fully equipped. but walking on the uneven floor is like walking on a boat made me sick. sheer curtains made felt like being watched from outside at night. no hot water the first day but Kelley got it fixed the next day. She’s very responsible.
