West Lodge Manchester, A Retreat in Manchester Village
Set on three private acres in the heart of Manchester Village, West Lodge Manchester offers a rare blend of privacy, comfort, and refined Vermont living.
Designed for gathering, the property features four bedrooms, a spacious loft sleeping area, and four-and-a-half baths, comfortably accommodating up to eight guests. One of the home's most distinctive features is its remarkable setting: unobstructed 360-degree views that stretch across the surrounding mountains and valleys, offering a sense of openness and connection to the landscape that is increasingly difficult to find.
At the heart of the property stands a beautifully preserved 1,500-square-foot historic barn, illuminated by warm café lights and framed by panoramic mountain vistas. More than a barn, it serves as a private gathering space for guests, featuring a comfortable lounge anchored by a stone fireplace, a professional ping pong table, and a fitness area for those inclined to start the day with a workout.
Beyond the grounds, views extend across a celebrated sculptural landscape toward the ridge lines beyond, creating a setting that feels distinctly Southern Vermont. Thoughtfully appointed for a seamless stay, the home is fully equipped with everything needed for an effortless escape—simply arrive and settle in.
Begin the day with coffee overlooking the mountains, spend afternoons exploring Manchester's boutiques, galleries, and historic landmarks, or enjoy a game of billiards before gathering around the fire pit as the landscape transforms in the evening light. Ideally located just minutes from Hildene, Bromley Mountain, Stratton Mountain, and many of the region's renowned arts and cultural destinations, West Lodge serves as the perfect home base for discovering the best of Southern Vermont throughout every season.
Whether you're reconnecting with family, hosting lifelong friends, or simply seeking a slower pace, West Lodge Manchester offers a retreat that feels both elevated and deeply rooted in its surroundings.The Space
