About Kathleen Kalinowski
We are a couple with three grown daughters. We ski, the girls snowboard. We enjoy all the seasons in Vermont; the summer being a fantastically beautiful time though autumn gets the most press! My husband Ed and I built this house to our exact design criteria in 2005. We wanted the house to be in the Vermont venacular style which we find so charming. Our guests are often surprised to discover that the house is new not a renovated 1890's farmhouse. We wanted a front porch, mudroom, open concept living area with gas fireplace, 2 bedrooms, a bunk room with separate lounge for guests or kids, 2 bathrooms, laundry room, sauna and central air-conditioning. The house was designed for entertaining while providing room to get away to read, sleep or relax in peace. All bedrooms have Smart TVs so everyone can be happy with their viewing. But the house is mainly intended for togetherness. There are beautiful outdoor views with French doors at both ends of the open concept area and extensive views from the bedrooms. The kids can enjoy their own 'world' if they like in the kids' apartment/bunk room which includes a lounge, mini-fridge, microwave, smart TV and DVD player. All of our guests have been very happy with the set-up! We share the house with another family on alternate weeks during ski season. This is called a '1/2 Share' which for the renting family includes all the holiday weeks, 10 total weeks. We have done this successfully since 2005. It's a great arrangement for those families that that are happy to ski/ride every other week.
Kathleen Kalinowski purchased this house in 2005
What makes this house unique
The house was designed to make use of passive solar benefits. It is highly insulated and sited to catch the sun in the winter and is shaded by porches and the overhangs in the summer. It's quite rare to find central air-conditioning in Vermont rentals. It makes all the difference because the summers and fall can have some very hot days. Our guests are very grateful for this amenity.
