Circa 1850s fully renovated Vermont farmhouse less than 15 miles from Jay Peak

The Farmhouse

This fully renovated rustic 1850s farmhouse is conveniently located on a main road in E. Berkshire, less than 15 miles from Jay Peak Ski Resort & Waterpark, and less than 30 miles from Smugglers Notch and the nearby Stowe Ski Area.

Nestled in the mountains, yet conveniently located on a main road, this farmhouse has been family owned since 1970, with a completed total renovation in 2022. The property features 4 bedrooms with a total of 6 beds, and 2 bathrooms, with all new appliances for your comfort. Come enjoy rocking chairs on the front porch facing the mountains or a cozy fire pit in the back with a nearby babbling brook.

The labor of love restoring The Farmhouse provides modern conveniences while keeping the old-world charm of the original post and beam construction. All-new lumber was milled by the owner/arborist mostly from local trees. Most of the furnishings and all of the cabinetry, countertops, and vanities have been handcrafted by a local woodworking artisan, again using milled lumber from the locale, thus adding to the rustic appeal of this charming Farmhouse.

Just off the kitchen, you will find the “boot room” with plenty of hooks and room for outdoor gear and shoes. Adjacent to the boot room is the laundry room with a new washer and dryer.

From the kitchen, plenty of seating can be found at the counter/bar, which adjoins to the dining room, and houses a table for six, this large rooms flows into the living room. The cozy (gas-burning) “wood stove” is featured at the center of the living room, with plenty of seating for movie-watching, reading, or playing games.

Off from the living room is the “Saloon Room,” a country motif bedroom with a full-sized brass bed, antique furnishings, and a small closet.

The downstairs bathroom has a full shower/tub, vanity/mirror, and shelving for toiletries. Note: Both bathrooms are supplied with (white) towels, a hairdryer, shampoo, and body wash.

Upstairs –

As you climb the custom-made stairs, you will find a cozy reading nook with two club chairs, should you want your own little quiet corner.

The King bedroom boasts a full-length mirror and a built-in dresser.

The Queen bedroom is outfitted with a poster bed and a built-in dresser.

The Bunk bedroom is a large open room with two full beds and one twin bed, cubbies, and lots of hooks for garments.

A large open bathroom with shower stall and double sink/vanity with a cubby unit for guests’ toiletries. Note: Both bathrooms are supplied with (white) towels, a hairdryer, shampoo, and body wash.

Outside –

The Farmhouse features a large front porch perfect for rocking and looking at the mountains with coffee or cocktails. Around the back of the house are Adirondack chairs, and a fire pit, with plenty of firewood provided.

A babbling brook can be heard from open windows in spring and found on the downslope from the back of the property. Also, guests should feel free to "pick your own" apples at harvest time in the fall from the trees to the rear and west of the house.

VT Family Trip
House was perfect and embodied what you would want from an old farmhouse except it has been fully renovated so you get the best of both worlds. Host was very responsive. Anything you needed was in the house. Great stay…..already planning to stay again next year!

Lovely farmhouse!
We loved every minute of our two night stay at this gorgeous, clean, and cozy farmhouse. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking and every small detail was well thought out at this home. No one wanted to leave and it was well worth the 15-20 minute drive to Jay Peak. You will not be disappointed if you stay here!

This was a wonderful place to stay! The location is great - near restaurants, grocery stores, 20 min from Jay Peak - and the home was very comfortable. There was plenty of space for 7 adults and the kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed. Communication with the host was great, especially when we forgot about daylight savings time and needed a slightly later check out time. I would definitely stay here again.

Great VT country home!
We went to Vermont to ski with another family. The house is up-to-date and in great shape! The rooms are comfortable and nicely appointed. The house is pretty convenient to Jay Peak (<20 min.) and the ride to/from takes you past covered bridges. The interior is completely renovated, and the woodwork is great. It is super clean, and the owners were very responsive to any questions we had. We saw deer in the backyard and enjoyed a beautiful sunrise. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The Farmhouse
We went to Vermont to ski. The house was beautiful. Its cozy (not in a small way) but all the rooms are generous in size and perfectly appointed. The wood is gorgeous. I am particular about cleanliness so I was happy to see all the white towels perfectly arranged and the bedding spotless. The house has the organic rustic vibe, while having all the modern conveniences. The owners were very hrlpful and attentive. They provided me with a long list of restaurants and even gave me a referral to a local mechanic to address an issue I had with my car. I am definitely going to return yo Vermont to ski and hope to stay here again. I usually like ski-in, ski-out, and was afraid that I would hate the drive to slopes, but it was completely doable. It was maybe 15 minutes and very easy.

Beautiful house
Very cozy and comfortable! Lots of ladybugs and flys inside however. People sensitive to critters as such might not like it. The beds were all very comfortable and the house is warm and had everything we needed.

Cozy Home!
My friends and I had a wonderful stay at Gary & Joanna's beautiful remodeled farmhouse. The home is spacious, cozy, and well-decorated with interesting VT antiques. We found the location convenient for a ski weekend at Jay Peak Resort, just a 20 min drive away. Gary & Joanna were responsive and attentive hosts that went above and beyond, even welcoming us with delicious baked goods for us to enjoy!

Wonderful!
The house was perfect for a family as the beds were very comfortable, the kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, etc., and there were plenty of places for all to sit / gather. Everything was very clean and the home was beautifully decorated. A perfect cozy home for a ski vacation. Joanna and Gary were wonderful hosts and were always available to answer questions. I would definitely book this property again.
