OFFERED WITH ABUTTING PROPERTY AT 145 HILLSIDE - SEE MLS#4967402 Views, privacy, and potential! Unique off-grid private double-parcel compound totaling 46.8 acres on the West Hill in Rochester captures the rustic-yet-comfortable lifestyle of Vermont . The two homes, detached studio, and large workshop/barn overlook a south-facing meadow and the stunning mountainside beyond. The homes are situated at the end of a class 4 road: surrounded on three sides by National Forest with no other houses in sight. Both homes have pellet stoves, propane cookstoves, and light-duty solar systems. One has a septic system, the other has a composting toilet; both have spring-fed water. One home has been featured in the book 'Small Houses' by Lloyd Kahn. It has stunning views out of every window, two cozy bedrooms, a lovely porch, and light-filled spaces. The other home (3 bedroom) is tucked privately into the forest and has larger rooms, including a vaulted-ceiling first-floor master bedroom with walk-in closet. The workshop/ barn is spacious- plenty of room to house a RV or boat and tools as well. It has a woodstove and propane heat, and a darling outdoor firepit area with trickling cascades just behind. The acreage features mixed forests, open meadow, two streams, and multiple additional potential build sites with views. Income potential: the property has excellent history in the short-term rental market. Less than ten minutes from the vibrant and quaint Village of Rochester.
