About this home

Some properties offer acreage, some offer breathtaking views, very few offer both along with a rich history worth preserving and a future waiting to be imagined. For generations, this rare south-facing farm has looked across the valley enjoying sunlight from dawn until dusk & panoramic views that are exceptional! More than productive farmland, it became a place where neighbors and families gathered. In 1970, the roadside farm stand sold fresh corn, tomatoes warm from the sun, potatoes, pumpkins and seasonal produce. Visitors wandered the fields to pick strawberries, while others stopped to find the day's harvest.The farm was home to beef cattle, horses and the flock of nearly sixty geese. The farm supplied local restaurants and markets with potatoes. Today, the old farm stand still watches over the fields, quietly waiting for its next chapter. Whether restored as a seasonal market, transformed into a cider tasting room with a boutique orchard, an artist's studio, or simply enjoyed as part of a beautiful country estate, the possibilities are as expansive as the landscape itself. Beyond the farm stand, the land rises gently through open meadows to what could be an exceptional homesite with panoramic south facing views. Once part of the pasture and hayfields where cattle and horses grazed, this peaceful hillside offers an extraordinary setting for a country home, where mornings begin with birdsong and evenings end with spectacular sunsets. Although it feels wonderfully private, the property is remarkably convenient. A genuine rural lifestyle with easy access to culture, travel and the city. Bennington is minutes away for shopping/restaurants, healthcare and Bennington College. Williamstown 20 min, Albany Int'l Airport & train station 45 min, Boston 3 hrs/Montreal 4 hrs.Some places are purchased, the rare ones are entrusted to their next caretaker. Come see this spectacular property for yourself, walk the land and absorb how special and unique this Vermont property is!
