Ascutney, VT

Tucked along the Connecticut River in the town of Weathersfield, Ascutney is a quiet, scenic village that offers classic Vermont living with easy everyday convenience. Because it sits right on the New Hampshire border, residents enjoy a laid-back, small-town atmosphere while staying just minutes from shopping and services across the river in Claremont. Quick access to Interstate 91 makes commuting north toward the Upper Valley and Dartmouth Health or south along the river corridor remarkably simple.

Life here revolves around Mount Ascutney, the prominent peak towering directly over the village.

Between the mountain views outside your front window and the peaceful river valley setting, Ascutney is a welcoming, down-to-earth spot to put down roots.
