About this property
Ski season or yearly rental. Fireplce. Dogs welcome. Walk to Equinox Pond & BBA.
The best location in Manchester is yours!
Ideal for a single person, couple or family thinking about moving to VT.
This is a terrific ski season rental for skiing at nearby Bromley (8 miles away) and Stratton (18 miles away.)
During foliage we offer short length stays.
Stay longer and save:
Annual rentals are 3k/month.
Ski season is 4k/month based on 4 months.
6 months is $3.5/month.
Utilities and VRBO commission is additional.
The Carriage House is located on Taconic Road, a quiet beautiful street lined with historic mansions. Stroll through charming Manchester Village on the marble sidewalks to restaurants, golf, and grand hotels including The Equinox Resort, and Reluctant Panther.
Abraham Lincoln's son Robert Todd Lincoln was the 1st person to rent this property. He stayed in the mansion (where I live) and used the Carriage House for his horses and stablemen. The wooden bar is made from the wood from his stables!
The Carriage House is an upstairs 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom free standing house.
Brand new full kitchen with stainless steel appliances -- full size fridge, oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker.
The open floor plan is great for hanging out.
The juge living room features an elegant leather couche and overstuffed leather chairs. Enormous smart TV.
The wifi is terrific. You can Zoom with a view and work remotely from Vermont.
Excellent wood paneled library with 2 twin beds. (The previous owner was involved with Blockbuster videos and his VHS tape collection awaits you!)
Small king bedroom with very comfortable new mattress.
Bathroom shower has excellent water pressure.
Use washer dryer in the mansion next door.
Hike to Equinox Pond or up Equinox Mt right from your front door!
Bring Fido. We are so dog friendly, we were on Animal Planet! (Additional $125/per dog - all breeds welcome!)
Enjoy outdoor tables and chairs, BBQ, fire pit and hammock in for enjoying the beautiful Vermont weather in summer and fall.
In the summer, the Carriage House is an ideal base for the nearby Vermont horse show.
My family has lived in Manchester for 50 years. We have owned and managed the award-winning Wilburton Inn for 38 years so we have maintenance and housekeeping should you need them. I'm happy to answer any questions at The Wilburton
We look forward to welcoming you to VT!

About the host
Hosted by Melissa Levis
My sister and I bought this wonderful mansion and carriage house in 2015. We great up in Manchester and both moved to NYC for our careers in the arts. We love coming home to Manchester and getting to live together again. We own and run The Wilburton Resort just a mile away. We have maintenance and housekeepers nearby in case you need anything.
Why they chose this property
The Carriage House is a wonderful space - I lived there myself during the pandemic. And my sister's husband who is a NYC attorney used the office as his remote office for a year. It's in a super neighborhood on Taconic Road in Manchester Village. You can walk around the historic block - it's a 30 minute beautiful loop. It's a 45 minute loop up to Equinox Pond.
What makes this property unique
Great for dogs!
