About this property

Private Sterling Valley New Englander Just 3.2 Miles from Main Street Stowe

Just 3.2 miles from Stowe's historic down-town shops and restaurants and set back off one of Stowe's most scenic country (paved) roads in Sterling Valley is the "Stagecoach House". Welcoming you as you pull in the driveway is a split-rail fenced front yard with stone walled perennial gardens and shale-stone fire pit. Just up the cobblestone walkway, you’re covered by a hand jointed hemlock post & beam style front farmers porch. Here, you're invited to drop your bags, relax, take in the sights and smells of the Green Mountains while taking a seat in one of the welcoming Adirondack chairs. As you enter the front door you're greeted by a slate entrance way that features built-in bench seating, coat hooks and cubbies that keep your hats, gloves, ski helmets and gear organized for outdoor activities. You realize right away that the property is owner-managed and extremely well cared for. It is exceptionally clean, well appointed and ready for your arrival. The first floor entrance opens to an airy and well-lit open-concept living area with fine furnishings, artful mountain decor, personal touches of the owner and wide-pine flooring throughout. Left off the entrance is a comfortable, cozy den, set up for sleeping additional guests or entertaining the kids with movies and shows on a 50” Samsung flatscreen Smart TV. An antique desk provides an Apple docking station and laser printer, all supported with high speed internet access should last-minute business needs arise. Opposite the den is a half bath with stone counter and tasteful decor. The fully equipped u-shaped kitchen with picket tile backsplash features granite counter tops, a suite of premium appliances including a Fisher & Paykel double drawer dishwasher, Viking Professional series range and double door refrigerator/freezer with ice and filtered water. Mountain-theme stoneware and utensils along with a full quiver of Calphalon cutlery and cookware fully equip the kitchen for any meal. All necessary kitchen appliances and tools at the ready along with ingredients, spices and cooking oils. Fondue pots, plates and color coded forks fully complete the Switzerland in Vermont mountain town experience! Just past the kitchen, the home opens to an open-concept first-floor living area. Dual sliding doors let a dramatic scenery and views of the Worcester mountain range into the home. The sliders open to a private back deck that seemingly sits amongst the tree-tops. On the deck is a large country picnic table, perfect for summer meals off the accompanying Weber Summit Series gas grill. Back inside, the interior dining area features a custom handmade Amish farm table of reclaimed barn board with generous seating for eight. The adjoining breakfast bar provides additional seating for two. Adjacent the dining area is the primary living area with comfortable full-grain leather couch, ergonomic leather chair, 55” Samsung Smart TV, DVD and SONOS wireless sound system. Opposite the entertainment and perched on a bluestone hearth is a Danish Morso wood burning stove with ambiance-enriching glass doors. After a huge day on the mountain; crack a Heady Topper from the Alchemist Brewery and feel a dense heat radiate from a monstrous antique saw blade mounted to the wall behind the wood stove. Now that is epic! Heading up the Red Birch staircase to the second floor, are two large bedrooms and a full bath. At right is a spacious bedroom with one queen bed and two twin beds. Ideal for sleeping children and an accompanying Au Pair. At left is the spacious master bedroom with king bed built-in bookcases and reading nook. Furnishings include a comfy futon couch and LL Bean futon chair. Both bedrooms have native Vermont wide-pine wood flooring, comfortable bedding and plenty of guest-dedicated space to unpack your travel bags. The second floor bathroom has a tile floor, soaking tub/shower enclosure and plenty of fresh towels. The finished lower level of the property greatly expands the living area with a third 65” Sony flatscreen Smart TV, soapstone wet bar, custom stone chimney with gas fireplace, ledge bar, Tiki Toss (ring toss game), dart board and Stiga ping pong table. The lower ground-level space features open and airy double casement crank-out windows. Additional natural light comes from a 3/4 light exterior door that balances bountiful natural light in the space with patina barn board accents complimenting soapstone counter surfaces and antiques. An integrated custom-built queen size Murphey bed transforms the lower level entertainment space into a fully contained and private guest-suite accommodation. Also on the lower level is a luxurious spa bathroom with radiant heat tile floor, custom walk-in tile shower, double sink vanity and 2-person traditional steam Havaria sauna. Across from the spa bath is a dedicated laundry room with modern LG front-loading washer & dryer and counter-top folding station. The home is sneakily impressive with amenities and personal touches. Nobody is bored and everyone is comfortable! Just short minutes and 2.2 miles from the local grocery store, 3.2 miles to historic down town Stowe and 9 miles to the legendary Stowe Mountain Resort. The property is very close proximity to attractions including golf, fine dining, mountain or road biking, hiking, fly-fishing, spas, breweries and off-piste ski touring in Sterling Valley. A side area yard space has games including corn hole, and croquet as well as a fire pit and hammock relaxing and evening star gazing. If you have young children, the home has everything you need for a hassle-free family vacation (including Pack & Play, toddler wings for a twin bed, booster seat, stroller, toys, books, baby monitor, infant tub etc.

This was our first trip to Vermont and it made me want to move there. The house is fantastic. It has everything you need. The owners were great to work with and made our stay incredible. It’s so close to everything but just secluded enough to be relaxing. It’s a short trip to town and the mountain. The Ben and Jerry’s factory was about 15 min drive. I can’t say enough good things about it. Thank you for a wonderful trip!!

This is our third year renting Jonathan's home. It never disappoints and feels like out home away from home. The house has everything you could possibly need and then some. They've made beautiful updates to the kitchen. It's clear that they really care about making your stay easy and comfortable.
