Description
This experience is Vermont at its best!Fully restored 200+ yr. old colonial farmhouse, on 40+ acres. Set on a spectacular piece of land that includes a Vermont mountain stream, open space, plenty of walking trails and some fun & challenging hiking opportunities up through the forest.Original field stone fireplace in living room built by John Stanley c. 1800. The state of the art kitchen is well stocked and features modern stainless steel appliances: 6 burner professional chef gas stove, dishwasher and microwave, yet still has that old world charm with butcher block counters and wood beams.3 sets of French doors that lead to a cozy back porch with panoramic scenery.Take in the views of “the back 40” while sipping your coffee, listening to the creek and contemplating a walk through the forest up to Oscar, the second oldest oak in Vermont. Or savor a glass of wine as you watch the sunset behind the mountain and maybe plan a hike to the Northwest corner, where there is an old post marking the NY/VT state boundary. (Our property backs up to 800 acres of state forest and mountains.) Either way be sure to take a rest and take in the breath taking views at “The Fork” on your way up.We love the area and property so much we also bought the cabin next door. Feel free to mosey over and check out the pond, the active Christmas tree farm and the tiny 10 person cemetery dating from the early 1800s. We also have goats, ducks chickens and bunnies at our property next door that you can visit and pet. (The cabin is also for rent VRBO 745850).The farmhouse is conveniently located between charming Manchester with its fine restaurants and upscale designer outlets and quaint, historic Bennington. This is Vermont at its best- small shops, antique stores, museums, art galleries, Green Mountain views, fine dining and 30 minutes to Bromley ski resort (which turns into a summer adventure park).Each of the two bedrooms have a new queen size bed . The upstairs bath is quite large and updated, as is the first floor bath.Child friendly with toys, books, low bunk bed ( the bottom bunk is almost on the floor) ,pack n play, children’s bowls, plates cups etcPets must be pre approved- we have farm animals the free range on our property next door.#MountMeMoSee more
