A-Frame Resto-Mod: Built in '73, Restored in '23

This updated mid-century A-Frame look out across the Mad River Valley and sits above the historic Waitsfield Common Road, locally known as one of the best walking/biking roads in the Valley, if not all of Vermont.

The ski resorts are a 10 to 15 minute drive away. In the warmer months this is a great starting point for hiking, biking, kayaking, and fishing. After a day out, unwind in the hot tub and take in the fresh air.

The floor-to-peak windows of this updated mid-century A-Frame look out across the Mad River Valley. It's an easy walk to the historic Waitsfield Common Road, locally known as one of the best walking/biking roads in the Valley, if not all of Vermont.

The Vonn Trapp Farm Store (yes, the hills are alive with the Von Trapps) is a neighbor down the road.

The ski resorts are a 10 to 15 minute drive away. In the warmer months this is a great starting point for hiking, biking, kayaking, and fishing.

This was the perfect property for our Christmas family stay in Waitsfield! Kate was an amazing host and communicator throughout our booking. The house was well appointed and enjoyed by all including our dog, Murphy. The views from the living room were unbelievable!

Ski lodge in the summer time

We spent an amazing week at the Mad River Ski Chalet. My kids declared this the best Vermont house we've ever stayed in (we go every year, we've stayed at a lot of houses). It's rural enough, while still being close to things you need. Waitsfield is a great town - lots of stores and restaurants. Easy drive to Burlington. But more importantly - the house is just great. Very comfortable, beautifully updated, great deck with incredible views. We definitely plan to stay here again.
