Property Details: Completely and authentically restored circa 1750 colonial home available year-round. Surrounded by thousands of uninhabited acres; property is secluded, yet easily accessible, located on quiet country road with the nearest neighbor 1/2 mile away, yet just a few miles from Rte. 110 and the typical Vermont small town of Washington.
This home is privately situated at the end of a well maintained tree lined town road at Nineteen Hundred foot + elevation with magnificent Northern views. Situated in Central Vermont, old timers claim you can see Canada on a clear day from the field behind the house.

Constructed hundreds of years ago as an original Post & Beam Cape, the home is complete with original wide-plank floors (honey colored), beamed ceilings, and more, and includes two bedrooms (sleeps six comfortably), living room with fieldstone fireplace, den, and modern bath and kitchen, with large flagstone rear patio. All conveniences including color TV, DVD & VCR, piped in stereo, telephone, microwave, washer and dryer, and tastefully furnished in a very comfortable decor. With its efficient heating system and generator backup it is comfortable year round in all sorts of weather.

Property includes private spring-fed pond ideal for swimming. Maple hedgerows, picturesque meadows, and nearby woodlands create an impressive Fall foliage display with magnificent views to the North. Far from the maddening crowd, the area is an ideal hiking and picnicking area and wildlife refuge, and is exceptionally well suited for cross country skiing. Horseback riding, fishing, golf, downhill skiing, quaint country auctions, antique and specialty shops are all within easy driving distance. Has been the site for several weddings and numerous honeymooners. Free WIFI

Gorgeous Private Getaway

Overall, great place and great people! Beautiful, big yard sloping from a tiny magical apple orchard, past the historic house, down to the perfect pond. We enjoyed feeding the fish, floating on the dock, and wading in the shallows with the tadpoles. Our two dogs absolutely loved it there, as well. The owner and caretaker are both accessible, friendly, and responsive. The surrounding area is mostly open fields, thick forests, and incredible views. It's located close enough to Barre & Montpelier for easy access to some really great restaurants, but still far enough to feel like a private wonderland. I hope to visit again someday soon. Although summertime was great for the pond and the unbelievably delicious LegenDairy Maple & Ice Cream shop close by, I also want to experience this property in the fall when the foliage is at its peak beauty and the apples are ready for eating!

Cute cabin

It was a very vermont experience. All the mirrors above the stairs were kinda creepy. Hella spiders, couple mice - don't leave anything out on the counter over night, but I guess its to be expected in this style cabin. Overall it was cute and on beautiful property.

July Stay

My wife, two boys (13 & 10) and I stayed at this property for four nights and rate our overall experience as really good. We were visiting from California and were looking for a remote location that provided a bit of isolation and natural beauty. The property location provided what we were looking for. For us, Vermont was beautiful and a short walk from the cabin provided some beautiful views of the mountains. My boys especially liked picking wild strawberries from the open fields. The cabin itself was rustic, but updated with all the essentials (TV’s, wi-if, full kitchen with all appliances, w/d, bathrooms had hot water and the fireplace was nice). The beds were springy and firm, but a little rough waking up in for me. I am near 50 yo so most beds don’t work for me that easily. The yard with the pond was a highlight. It was great to swim in and our boys enjoyed daily feeding the 20 or so rainbow trout that occupy it (food provided). The property manager was available by phone if needed and very friendly. The one negative was that the owner requires you to bring your own linens for the beds and towels. Luckily we had friends near Boston that let us borrow theirs. If not we would have had to haul them from California and taken space in our luggage. Otherwise, we had a great time on the property.
