The land opens west. That is the first thing to understand about The Sanctuary on Worcester Ridge. 4.94 private acres along the coveted Elmore Mountain Road corridor, aimed squarely at Mount Mansfield, Vermont's highest peak. In autumn the ridgeline turns before the valley does. In winter, the last light off the summit snowfields comes in through the kitchen. Custom built by the sellers in 2006 as their own private escape: 3 bedrooms, 4 baths, and living space built for how people actually live. The main floor holds a purpose built theater room, an office, and the primary bedroom ensuite. A gourmet chef's kitchen with views flows to a covered porch, with the hearth anchoring the heart of the home. The walk-out lower level adds a second multi media room, a gym, and two more bedroom en-suites. Outside, grounds landscaped over two decades into something mature and intentional, invite you into the surroundings, and a pad just off the porch is already wired for a hot tub. The two car garage connects through a large entryway purpose built for year round convenience across all four Vermont seasons. Designed for an escape, yet still connected by choice with Fiber Optic Internet connectivity, under an hour proximity to Burlington International Airport and UVM Medical Center. Enjoy being six miles from dinner in the Village of Stowe and world class skiing. Minutes to the hospital and infrastructure of Morristown. Steps to trails, ski terrain, and Lake Elmore. Viewings begin by appointment on September 17.
