I must admit, I have never really considered a move further north than my home state of Connecticut. I have tent camped in every state in New England and I certainly appreciate the beauty of them all…but, to live?
Why would I never move to Vermont myself? That infamous four letter word…s-n-o-w. But that is exactly one of the reason’s my childhood friend Donna loves living in Vermont. Although skiing every day in the winter is not a motivator for me, it is part of the appeal of living in snow country for Donna and her husband!

Ready for winter! Donna’s son and the rest of the University of Vermont lacrosse team made short work of stacking up this stockpile of firewood!
Today, I am sharing a little bit of the home that could actually make me consider a move! With a wonderful sense of style, great resourcefulness and vision, and unique collaborations, my friend and her husband have created an amazing home inside and out!
Starting with a wonderful respect for the view and using many reclaimed materials from the area, this couple has spent the last five years creating a home that is uniquely their own.
I hope you have enjoyed the photos of this home and its amazing views. If you want to see a few sneak peeks of the inside, I have shared a few photos on Facebook and Instagram…you will have to wait till spring for a full inside tour! :)
Thanks for stopping by! Remember to take pleasure in simple things…like visiting childhood friends, Jackie
