About This Home

As of October 2014

A Dorset family retreat for all generations. 70 acres of rolling lawns, pastures, meadows, sugar maple and trails, yet only minutes to the Dorset Green. A timeless beauty, providing a true Vermont experience. Enjoy this 6 BR/6BA tastefully updated farmhouse along with 65' X 30' post and beam barn with horse stalls and hay loft in excellent condition. Sugar house. Trails and upper meadow (where views expand to breathtaking) are the perfect getaway to walk, run and snow shoe. Plenty of space to ride horseback, snow mobile, or ATV. Beautiful open kitchen/dining/living area, three levels of living in finely finished spaces filled with natural light, great for entertaining. Wonderful master suite along with 5 other bedrooms offer plenty of space for family and friends. Stone terrace perfectly situated to enjoy southern and western exposure and some of the best vistas in all of southern VT. A rare opportunity combining Vermont country charm with today's comforts for the active family.
