http://www.PallSpera.com - Designed and influenced by Florence “Shu” Knoll Bassett, a woman recognized worldwide as an icon of the mid twentieth century’s modern movement in architecture and interior design, this classic Vermont estate is being offered for the first time.  

The tree lined gravel drive, laced with century old stone walls, will heighten your senses as you approach this distinctive property, reminiscent of lines from a Robert Frost poem…“a road less travelled”.

Nestled into the surrounding landscape, this unique home offers the character and detail of a Contemporary Vermont farmhouse exterior and is sited to showcase the stunning, panoramic mountain and meadow views.

Custom built in 1981, this 2760 sq. ft. home is modern in style and function by the standards of today’s buyer, offering clean lines and a sun filled, flowing floor plan.  The expressive use of slate, brick, white washed pine walls and expansive areas of glass are a true trademark of Shu Bassett’s approach to total design, allowing a seamless blend of interior space with nature. A 14x20 double door slate foyer welcomes guests to the center hall. The kitchen, dining room and living room open to each other, sharing the warmth of a fireplace, sweeping views to the East and access to a large deck for year round enjoyment of all seasons. A quiet office space is located off the hall leading to a first floor Master Bedroom Suite that offers the first light of sun in the morning and the twinkle of stars in a clear night sky.  The walk-out lower level is finished with a fireplace family room, large en suite bedroom, utility room and mud room entry from the two car garage and workshop.
