Comfortable, peaceful and convenient three-bedroom house on 12 acres of beautiful woods with marked trails and a stream. Wonderful for snowshoeing. On a quiet gravel road two miles from the quaint village of Greensboro and pristine Caspian Lake.
On upper level: Living room with fireplace, dining room, well-equipped kitchen with dishwasher and microwave; laundry room with washer and dryer; sun porch; bathroom with tub and shower; and two bedrooms (one with queen, one with double futon).
On lower level: Sunroom/office/studio, large carpeted playroom with wood stove, queen-sized futon, and ping-pong table; a bedroom with twin beds and bathroom with tub and shower. Crib and porta-crib available.
There is a lovely garden in front of the house, with some vegetables and a large grassy area for play. A deck and backyard have furniture and a grill. The woods behind the house have beautiful marked hiking trails that lead to a stream. There is a large platform (20x24') near the house which can accommodate a very large tent or several small ones. The Caspian Lake beach is nearby, and many miles of beautifully-groomed trails for skiing or hiking begin at the Highland Lodge, 1/2 mile away. There are VAST snowmobile trails and golf and tennis nearby. The Lodge has a nice restaurant, and so does the town of Hardwick, 20 minutes away. Greensboro has a wonderful general store. Drive to nearby Stowe, Jay Peak, Burke Mtn. for downhill skiing.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
We live and work in the Philadelphia suburbs. We are a blended family of seven grown children, several of their spouses, and three grandchildren.
Why the Owner Chose Greensboro
I fell in love with Caspian Lake and Greensboro as a child. After years of looking for as special a place closer to home, we have rented houses for family vacations in Greensboro for the last 7 years, and have always loved the area. We bought the house to eventually retire to. Meanwhile, we all love having our own special place in a very special part of Vermont.
The Unique Benefits of this House
We love walking in the woods, swimming in the lake, biking and hiking and cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. We love the peace and quiet of the Northeast Kingdom, the wonderful local foods available, the friendly down-to-earth people, the smell....
