The swimming in the pond (we call it the Lake) is superb and one of the main attractions in summer. The lake is a huge, (1-acre plus) manmade pond with a small beach and clear water that is spring-fed (natural wetlands ensure the water flowing into the pond is fresh and clean). The bottom is sand. The depth averages around 12 ft. Swimming is delightful. Our kids love to spend their whole day around the lake.
*Note: We love dogs but because of severe allergies, can only considered hippoallergenic well behave dogs.
Nearby is the quaint village of Weston with the renowned 'Vermont Country Store' and Weston Playhouse theater. The city of Manchester for outlet shopping 20 minutes away. Conveniently located in the foothills of the Green Mountains National Forest between Stratton and Okemo (20 minutes) and with Bromley (10 minutes) and Magic Mountain (just 5) minutes around the corner, our home is the perfect family retreat. No traffic, no noise, just peace, quiet and complete privacy. This property is surrounded by nature.
Some of Vermont's best restaurants like J.J. Hapgood in Peru are within 10 minutes and top restaurants in Manchester and Dorset within 20 minutes. Hike or cross-country ski from your doorstep into the forest across the fields, or start from the best cross-country skiing in Southern Vermont at nearby Greendale Rd. and go as far as you want (trails connect all the way to Canada.)
Once you settle down in front of the stove in the comfortable living room, or sit outside at the back of the house to take in the views of the Vermont mountain range, or sit down at the private beach, life leaves nothing else to be desired. Open floor plan, nice bedrooms with a lot of character, and large family room.
The superbly crafted timber frame house with inviting interiors overlooks the property's open fields, 1-acre lake, private trail network and beautiful mountain range behind.
