14 OLCOTT ROAD- This exquisite hip-roof Colonial, built by renowned craftsman Doug Gest, is a classic reproduction completed in 2007 and recently updated. It is privately situated at the end of a winding drive. Facing south with a long ell, it captures stunning, uninterrupted westerly views and sunsets. Immaculate inside and out, exceptional finish work and details are showcased throughout, from the hand carved staircase and ribbon mahogany flooring to the flame cherry paneling. Well-proportioned rooms, high ceilings, and abundant natural light create a graceful balance between open-concept living at the center of the house and more intimate spaces toward the front. Seamless flow between the kitchen, dining area, living room, screened porch, and fieldstone patio makes entertaining family and friends effortless. Upstairs, a gracious primary suite features a substantial, well-appointed bath, while two additional ensuite bedrooms complete the floor. A first-floor ensuite bedroom, and the five-bedroom septic design provides potential for future renovation or expansion. The grounds are equally impressive, with tasteful landscaping and handsome stone walls complementing the home’s classic architecture. There is a newly added Solaflect solar tracker and Tesla battery backup system. Ideally located just four minutes from Norwich Village and Dan & Whit’s, the property is also only a short drive from Hanover and Dartmouth College, providing a peaceful retreat without compromising proximity to Upper Valley amenities. Homes built and maintained with this degree of quality and care are truly rare.

Norwich
Norwich was recently voted as the #1 Best Place to Live in Vermont by Niche.com. The quaint and picturesque town has a population of approximately 3,400 people. Its close proximity to Hanover and its many historic buildings and attractions such as The Norwich Inn, Dan & Whit’s General Store, Norwich Bookstore, and King Arthur Flour make it one of the most desirable places to live in the Upper Valley. As one New York Times article described, “With a main street lined with white clapboard colonial buildings and a landmark steepled church, Norwich could be a set designer’s renderings of a tiny New England village.”

Hanover is home to Dartmouth Health, boutique shopping outlets, fabulous food, and more. One of its main attractions is Dartmouth College (one of the Ivy Leagues and the ninth oldest college in the nation), and in part due to its youthful atmosphere, the town enjoys a lively, 'New England cosmopolitan' business district. Hanover offers an incredible mix of activities from access to the White and Green Mountains to its arts and culture community not to mention the obvious intellectual benefits found in a college town.

Woodstock, Vermont is the quintessential New England historic town. It sits in a valley surrounded by low-lying hills that nestle rather than overwhelm, and is a community snuggled around the Ottauquechee River. Woodstock is home to many excellent shops and restaurants, the Woodstock Inn & Resort, a great middle and high school, and it never fails to serve as an incredible place to go for a walk or meet someone for coffee.
Those who choose to reside near Woodstock continue to be some of the most educated in the world, some of the most accomplished “captains of industry” in the country. You’ll find filmmakers, war correspondents, writers, artists, military experts, doctors, high-tech entrepreneurs, rock stars, equestrians and happy soccer moms and dads all grabbing a coffee in town. Woodstock also attracts its fair share of Dutch, English and French, many of whom are reminded of home by the gentle hills, winding dirt roads, cows, sheep and horses in pastures next to beautiful weathered barns. Even if it’s not the old country, it has the feel of a place with deep roots.

Quechee is the site of Quechee Gorge on the Ottauquechee River and is also the home to the Quechee Lakes planned community initiated in the late 1960s, which brought to the community the small Quechee Lakes Ski Area in the 1970s. The ski area has 13 trails and 3 lifts. Perched atop the falls of the Ottauquechee River, overlooking a covered bridge, Simon Pearce offers glassblowing demonstrations, a renowned restaurant, and new bar.
