Applebrook Cottage in Landgrove offers the rare opportunity to own an authentic antique home, rich in character, charm, and potential . . . and also 12 acres with additional development potential on one of the prettiest roads in the area! Live in the cottage while you build your dream home or make the cottage your own special retreat and appreciate the acreage for recreation and adventure. Offering timeless appeal, the circa 1829 cottage sits among mature apple trees and perennial gardens, with long frontage on a gently flowing brook and it can be used and enjoyed as is, but it is also a blank canvas for restoration or modernization and the next chapter in its storied history. The add'l acres lie mostly across the stream and are accessed from Ridge Road, well off the main road and adjacent to the Green Mountain National Forest. Conveniently located between the villages of Londonderry and Peru, it is a short drive to town for groceries and more, and you'll enjoy shopping, dining, arts and historical opportunities, summer theater and the best summer farmers' market just minutes away. A wider selection of amenities is in Manchester, just 15 minutes west. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate easy access to several ski resorts (Bromley is 5 minutes' drive), and direct access to national forest and the Catamount Trail, with miles and miles and acres and acres of year-round recreation. Comfortable as it is and full of possibilities for future updates, Applebrook Cottage offers an authentic and historic Vermont cottage with character, charm, and convenience.
