VERMONT HOME TOUR

Welcome to our Vermont Home Tour. This is a curated page that helps you navigate throughout the blog. It is divided into sections based on unique spaces in the home. I hope you find lots of inspiration here today, friends! Don’t forget to check out our Coastal Maine Home Tour too!

A small red ranch in the mountains of Vermont! I never would have dreamed it…

Red Ranch Home in the Vermont Mountains

I had visions of a post and beam with a view to die for.  Well, instead we found the view and the amazing deck to sit on and we were sold!

Welcome to our red ranch home in the green mountains of Vermont, as we enjoy the views, outdoor living, Appalachian trail, cold winter months, and neighbors we invite over by simply ringing a bell!

A Walk Around the Yard

What drew us to this home was its breathtaking views of the Green Mountains of Vermont. We are currently in the process of redoing the front yard’s landscaping and adding a gas fire pit patio conversation set to enjoy the cool Vermont evenings while taking in the views. The front porch is also undergoing some structural changes that will eventually open it up more to the views as well. Stay tuned for that.

Farmer’s Porch

The long and narrow farmer’s porch on the front of the house is our favorite spot in the home. It overlooks the mountains and is perfect for spring and summer outdoor living. This is where we grill, dine outside, wave to neighbors walking by, and invite them over with just a ring of a bell.

Sunroom / Home Library

Our Vermont home tour wouldn’t be complete without a visit to this home’s sunroom. Which has transformed over time. It serves as a perfect room for morning coffee, reading a book, enjoying tv, or simply watching the storms roll in over the mountains.

Dining Room

The dining room is part of the home’s open concept living just off the kitchen. We installed a faux vintage fireplace mantel that I found on Facebook Marketplace that sits as the focal point of this room. A large white Pottery Barn farm table and wicker chairs are always a favorite on our Vermont home tour.

Bedrooms

This home has three bedrooms. A Master bedroom on one side with french doors that open onto a small deck with an outdoor hot tub overlooking the mountains. A two-bedroom guest suite with a bathroom and its own entryway on the other side with its own set of french doors that leads out onto the farmer’s porch to enjoy morning coffee and take in the gorgeous mountain views.

Open Kitchen

The kitchen is an absolute favorite and the hub of the home. It was designed with all lower cabinets, stainless steel appliances, marble countertops, two sinks, and more. It opens onto both the living room and dining room for perfect entertainment.

Built-In Bookshelves

The home came with amazing built-in shelving in both the living room and sunroom. I have enjoyed decorating them all with vintage finds along with our book collection throughout the changing New England seasons.

I think you’ll find Ella and I over here watchin I think you’ll find Ella and I over here watching reruns of Grease tonight🎥🎶🍿
We will miss you terribly Olivia Newton John 🎶🙏🥲
Do you remember where you were when you watched Grease for the first time?🎥 🎶🍿
I was in junior high school when my mother brought me and a girlfriend to see the movie.  My mother sat in the back row with our elderly neighbor, Flossy and I sat up front with my girlfriend. My mother couldn’t stop talking about it. We all loved it. At least 3 generations of women did that day🫶🏻🎥🎶🍿
