This bright, quiet space rises over the Indian River and the D&H rail trail. Walk, bike, snowshoe and ski through meadows and woods, past wetlands, farms and grazing animals on this beautiful 11-mile-long trail.

The apartment is full of light with high ceilings and nine huge windows. The refinished original fir and maple floors add warmth to the entire space. The building is on a slope, so the western-facing kitchen and porch rise up high over the river and rail trail and the view is breathtaking. Sunlight floods the kitchen and the balcony throughout most of the day.

The 2 bedroom apartment has a well-equipped kitchen and pantry, as well very reliable high-speed, fiber optic WiFi as well as an Apple TV box and monitor for streaming. No cable TV. Access to the apt. is by way of stairs with hand railings. Shared access to the laundry on the garden level, the garden and fire pit, a bicycle and snowshoes. The balcony outside the kitchen window is for you alone. Parking is in the driveway.

West Pawlet is a quiet, rural VT village that was once a bustling quarry and farming town with a railroad depot. People from all walks of life live in the community. Other than the post office, there is no retail activity in the village, but Granville is just 3 miles down the road, or you can drive along beautiful country roads along a river and through farmland surrounded by hills to get to Pawlet, Dorset, and Manchester (4, 10 and 16 miles respectively) for delicious, fresh, artisanal and prepared food, farmer’s markets, shopping, arts, and hiking. If you are a skier, Bromley is 19 miles away and Killington is 30. Burlington and Stowe are each about 2 hours north. Middlebury, which has a great food co-op, is 45 miles north.
