The Old Schoolhouse

Some homes have a story, this one started as a one-room schoolhouse in 1813. Situated along the quiet, well-maintained N. Fayston Road, this 2,400 sq ft home blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates. Natural light pours in through brand-new windows, an open first-floor layout invites easy living, and a soapstone wood stove adds warmth on the chillier Vermont days. Upstairs, the space is yours to configure, three bedrooms, a home office, a private retreat, whatever fits your life. The flat, half-acre yard is made for enjoying with mature trees, garden space, and plenty of places to settle in, whether that’s a hammock in the shade or a quiet corner to watch the day go by. Picture your mornings here: coffee, mountain views, fresh air. Recent updates give you peace of mind: Rinnai heaters (2 years old), new flooring, added structural supports, and a French drain system. The property runs on private utilities, with an artesian well that’s never run dry, and has high-speed internet making working from home easy. Outdoor adventure is practically at your doorstep, 20 minutes to Sugarbush, and minutes to both the Long Trail and the VAST network. Located in the Harwood Union School District, with the school bus stop right out front. It’s a quick drive to Waitsfield, Route 100, and all the amenities of the Mad River Valley. History, views, and room to make it your own. Welcome to Fayston.
