Description:
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an extraordinary 460-acre estate where timeless character, modern functionality, and breathtaking natural beauty converge. Nestled within a pristine valley of rolling pastures, mature forests, and pastoral views, this remarkable property offers limitless possibilities from a thriving agricultural enterprise to an unparalleled private family retreat. At the heart of the farm are two exceptional residences. The charming vintage farmhouse features four bedrooms and four baths, blending historic warmth with classic VT living. Complementing it is an elegant estate home with five bedrooms and four baths, providing refined accommodations ideal for extended family, guests, or multi-generational living. A separate guest cottage adds even more flexibility for visitors, caretakers, or rental opportunities. Designed for serious agricultural production while offering exceptional lifestyle appeal, the property includes a dairy barn, equipment barn, hay barn, workshop, bunkhouse, fuel depot and more. Nine electrified beef cattle paddocks create an efficient rotational grazing system, while an extensive solar array powers the operation, enhancing sustainability and reducing operating costs. The land itself is simply extraordinary. Expansive open fields transition seamlessly into peaceful woodlands, creating a landscape equally suited for livestock, equestrian pursuits, recreation, hunting, hiking, conservation, or simply enjoying the serenity of country living. Whether your vision is a productive working farm, an equestrian estate, a self-sufficient gentleman's farm, a luxury family compound, a corporate retreat, or a legacy property to be cherished for generations, this exceptional offering provides the foundation to make it a reality. Rarely does a property of this scale, quality, and versatility become available. More than a farm, this is an opportunity to create a lasting legacy limited only by your imagination.
