Beautiful, sunny retreat high over river and rail trail | Wohnung in Pawlet

This beautiful, peaceful, bright space is perfect for anyone seeking a quiet retreat near nature. It overlooks the Indian River and is right next to the D&H rail trail where you can walk, bike and ski through meadows, wetlands and woods for miles. Sip coffee in the morning light on the balcony or share a meal with friends while the sun sets behind the rail trail bridge. Warm up by the fire pit along the river on a cold, clear night. High-speed, fiber-optic wifi and several potential workspaces throughout make working remotely in this quiet, peaceful space a joy.
This second floor apartment is in the historic West Pawlet post office building. With high ceilings and nine huge windows, the space feels expansive while the refinished, original wood floors and lath and plaster walls imbue the space with history, character and warmth.
The building is on a slope, so the western-facing kitchen and balcony rise up high over the garden, river and trail. The views are breathtaking. Sunlight pours into the kitchen and onto the balcony throughout the afternoon.
Inside:
-2 bedrooms, each with very comfy queen beds and linens. All bedding, including duvet covers, as well as throw blankets and sofa throw pillow covers are laundered between guest stays.
-The bathroom has a small, pretty shower and a beautiful floor of blue-green slate from a local quarry. The shower is laundered between guest stays.
-The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you'll need for a great meal. It has a large fridge, a spacious walk-in pantry, and a reverse osmosis water filtration system.
-Many workspace options.
-Flexible dining arrangements. All the furniture legs have felt to protect the floors and make everything easy to move around. The little tables throughout, including one on the wall in the toy room, can be moved around as needed to accommodate friends.
-The bedroom adjacent to kitchen has a round, wooden table that can double as a workspace or dining table. Overhead, antique cabinet doors swing open to create a pass-through for food as well as extra natural light and breeze for a bright and airy workspace.
-Living room has an AppleTV box and monitor which will work with any device with an iCloud account. -The toy room is filled with games and toys for all ages.
Outside:
Step right out of the pantry onto the soaring balcony to sip coffee in the quiet morning light while looking out over the garden, river and trail. Later in the day, work remotely in the sunny afternoon breeze. At dusk, after a long walk or a dip in the river, sit on the balcony and share local hard cider and artisanal cheese with friends as the sun sets over the trail bridge.
-The rail trail is 100 feet or so to the left as you walk out the front door. Walk over the bridge into the woods and past some old farm buildings and suddenly the trail will open wide up into a dream about meadows, wetlands, woods, mountain silhouettes, a big sky, and wildlife everywhere. It is truly magical all year round. In any weather, you might meet a friendly neighbor or visitor who has come to bike, hike, ski and even horseback-ride on this glorious trail.
-The back garden is by the river. It is so pretty and has been an absolute joy to work on and spend time in.
-The river bank has a slate platform where you can hang out, fish, embark on a river walk, and dunk into the water. Bring down the fire pit on a crisp night as long as you have experience with fire protocol.
