Overlooking lush hay fields that cascade down, across and up the valley below, is a bucolic 51.2+/- acre farmstead known as Tether Loop Farm. If you dream about a land-based lifestyle in Vermont, it doesn’t get any better. The certified organic farm is designed with maple syrup production, gardening and haying in mind. The setting is exceptionally peaceful and private with long range views. Only 8 miles from the state capital, the farm is self sufficient and safe with high speed internet, solar panels and whole house automatic generator. The 4-bedroom 3-bathroom farmhouse was custom built in 2003 with a cathedral post and beam frame that was hand crafted by local artisans using timbers from the property. It is charming and comfortable perfect for family and friends with multiple windows and 3 covered porches to take in the views. There is also a detached two car garage with bathroom and shower, heated potting area and upstairs guest suite with exterior deck and hot tub. Across the field is a Pacific Yurt built in 2018 with exterior deck. Behind the house is a 20x30 log cabin sugarhouse with 750 taps producing 200+/- gallons of maple syrup annually. To the west is a 3-bay hay-wagon barn and hay loft and two 48x20 equipment sheds along with a 24-panel solar array. Minutes from Montpelier and Norwich University, Tether Loop Farm is a rare and special offering.
