The "Healing House"
Set on two acres on Dog Mountain in the lovely Vermont town of Saint Johnsbury. Named number 1 small town in America by National Geographic Adventures, you get all benefits of the country setting while being just minutes from both routes 91 and 93.
A fieldstone walk brings you to the front door and expansive wrap-around porch. Relax on the large deck out back or luxuriate in the spacious energy effiecient hot water spa while listening to the soothing sounds of the waterfall. Spring water flows year-round into a small pond with a sandy beach. Wildflowers abound, bordering a private path leading to Dog Mountain's miles of hiking trails.
A large storage shed can hold all your gardening supplies. Inside, the vaulted ceilings and many multi-paned windows make it light and airy. The open floor plan is perfect for entertaining.
Extremely well insulated, the home stays warm in the winter and cool in the summer. A cozy gas fireplace in the living room easily warms the area, with the addition of forced hot-air gas furnace.
THe kitchen has solid cherry cabinets with Stephen's signature carved flower panels and flower knobs. Counter tops are made of intertwined tiger maple and walnut.
An island workspace allows the chefs to chat with guests while they work. Ever mindful of the family dog, the kitchen has a dog door with access to the backyard which can be shut airtight when not in use.
