House rental in Jamaica, Vermont - Summer in Traditional Village Home - Prime Weeks Available - Property 144367

The House and Barn: House has been a family summer home for over 30 years - but rented out weekly in summer and fall, and every winter. Thus it is set up for tenants. It is well equipped with china, glass, cooking equipment etc. Sheets and towels, dish cloths and bathmats are all provided. One of the features is the way in which the living room and the country kitchen provide one open space. They are distinct separate areas, but are open to one another. Thus the person cooking is also 'part of' the group sitting around the fire. (From the end of the kitchen to the end of the living room is 36'.) The Barn has parking for two cars, but is difficult to use for parking in the winter, as the snow tends to block the doors. However, there is direct access from the house - and firewood is stored conveniently in the barn. House has a mudroom for storing skis and boots in the winter, swimsuits and sports gear in the summer. It also has a separate laundry room with washer and dryer.

The house has charm and character. It is about 200 years old, of wood construction. It is a perfect setting in the winter, with a group sitting around the fire and snow all around. The fact that it is on a plowed road, and the shops are just a short walk makes for a very convenient location. It has been carefully maintained and well looked after, and visitors always comment on how 'at home' they felt as soon as they walked through the door.
