Constructed in the 1830’s and recently renovated, this classic, Vermont farmhouse located in Windham is sure to warm your heart. Hardwood floors, antique fixtures, and comfortable furniture provide a casual, country atmosphere. The location provides you with absolute privacy, yet has easy access to Vermont’s many amenities.
The house sits off a paved road and is surrounded by two acres of beautifully manicured lawn lined with stone walls and tall pine trees. Beyond that is the rest of the 90 acres where visitors can enjoy breathtaking vistas as they explore the walking trails or swim, boat, and fish in the private 12-acre trout pond. Three giant bedrooms make the home perfect for two families - two rooms each with a queen bed and a third room with one full and two twin beds. A spring-coiled futon in the master bedroom provides additional sleeping. A cot is also available. Well-mannered pets permitted for winter full-season renters.
During your visit, explore the property on foot, snowshoe, or ski. Rolling meadows, rocky crags, cool forests, and mountain vistas await. Stand in the sunshine and gaze down on a shimmering, crystal-clear twelve-acre lake, suitable for swimming, boating, and fishing. Take a walk up to the two-acre beaver pond and enjoy the chirp of crickets and the peeping of summer frogs. The ponds are stocked with rainbow, brook, and brown trout for the skilled angler. A complementary boat is provided for fishing or just floating around. There is so much to do and see that many of our guests spend days without ever leaving the property!
The house is within a 20-minute drive of the historic and scenic villages of Chester, Weston, Grafton, and Londonderry. Manchester, which is known for its great shopping, antiquing, and dining, is also only 20 minutes away. Okemo’s top-rated Tater Hill Golf Club is a two-minute drive. Many of Vermont's beautiful state parks, which offer visitors great spots for swimming, hiking, and picnics, are within a ten to thirty-minute drive. For those of you looking for skiing action we are near Magic Mountain (five miles), Bromley (fourteen miles), Stratton (eighteen miles), and Okemo (twenty-three miles) downhill ski areas and a short drive to Wild Wings, Viking, and Grafton cross-country ski centers. |
