Sutton, VT | 74 S Ridge Road

Surrounded by farmland on a lush 1.7-acre corner lot is where you’ll find this quaint cape-style home. The rich soil is ideal for gardening, as evidenced by the perennial beds in front of the home, as well as the English roses, apple trees, berry bushes, and lilac trees. The backyard is wide open and prime for a vegetable garden, and there’s a sweet garden shed that’s in need of a few repairs. Inside this 1840 home is an open kitchen and dining room full of charm with exposed beams, wide-plank pine floors, open shelving, Corian countertops, and a classic woodstove. Large picture windows and a Modern Glenwood Wood Parlor stove ensure that the living area is warm and bright. Around the corner is an office or den space with built-in shelving. The primary bedroom is on this level, as well as the full bath with oversized vanity. Two more bedrooms are on the second floor. The home does need a new roof, but the septic was recently pumped and given a clean bill of health. From here you’re 10 minutes from Lyndonville and 6 miles from East Burke, home of Burke Mountain and Kingdom Trails. If you have visions of a quintessential Vermont home, this one is certainly worth a look.
