About This Home

As of December 2024

AUCTION - Seller offering property via online auction. Bid online beginning Tuesday, October 15th with a starting bid of $1,900,000. Preview weekend begins Saturday, October 12th to view Blue Sky Farm: A Vermont refuge like no other in the hills of Peacham offering every lifestyle amenity within the expansive 144-acre estate. Designed for those seeking a luxurious, self-contained destination that offers total privacy, ample guest space, a waterfront lifestyle on the shores of Ewell Pond, and generous equestrian facilities. The end-of-the-road location provides privacy, and the unique topography of the land cradles and protects the homes, barns, and outbuildings that include a shingle-style Main Lodge, Mountain Cabin, Studio, and Apartment. Additional outbuildings provide gym and entertainment spaces, and a modern Lake House overlooking Ewell Pond provides a waterfront retreat with a dock and swim float. Stables for up to 20 horses, acres of fenced pastures, miles of improved trails and interior roads, five ponds, extensive property-wide stone masonry, established perennial gardens, a 34Kw net grid-tied PV array and panoramic views complete the landscape. Built on the historic Taylor Farm Homestead site in 1994 with an unconstrained budget, the living spaces utilize reclaimed post and beam frames and exterior barnboard. With high-speed internet connectivity throughout, Blue Sky Farm offers a blend of modern amenities and natural beauty.
