Private Vermont Mountain Retreat Near Stowe. Set amid 10+ private acres on scenic Elmore Mountain Road, this beautifully updated retreat offers a rare blend of seclusion, refined comfort, and year round living, approximately 15 mins from downtown Stowe, 22 mins from Stowe Mountain Resort, and close to Lake Elmore and Morrisville. A graceful circular crushed stone drive winds through the wooded landscape to a thoughtfully appointed home surrounded by mature trees and curated outdoor spaces. Stonework, hardscaping, a patio, garden areas, and a screened porch create an inviting extension of the living space and provide the perfect setting for quiet mornings or summer dinners. Inside, the home balances classic Vermont character with an elevated sensibility. Natural light flows throughout the renovated interiors, while the open-concept kitchen, dining, and living areas create an effortless setting for intimate gatherings and larger entertaining. The kitchen features a generous island and easy access to the main living areas, while the main-level primary suite offers a private bath and ample closet space. Two additional bedrooms on the upper level provide comfortable accommodations for family and guests. The finished lower level offers an expansive, flexible space ideal for a media lounge, rec room, gym, or office. A wood-burning stove adds warmth and character, while first-floor laundry, abundant storage, and an attached two-car garage provide the practical conveniences of a well-maintained property. Beyond the house, the land offers a rare sense of openness, with the potential for sweeping mountain views to emerge through selective tree management. Not subject to Stowe's short-term rental cap, the property offers flexibility as a full-time residence, a sophisticated four-season getaway, or an investment opportunity. Here is something increasingly difficult to find: meaningful acreage, privacy, and proximity to Stowe without the Stowe price premium.
