Exquisite Country Home for Sale in Barnard, Vermont

Of the many hilltop villages in central Vermont, Barnard has it all. From robust farm-to-table agriculture to the archetypal Vermont country store, the celebrated outdoor Feast and Field Market to world-renowned hospitality at Twin Farms resort no other town in the area boasts 84-acre Silver Lake, a focal point that provides both summer and winter recreation. And set just above the village on a grassy south-facing rise less with a quintessential view of the church steeple less than one mile away, this modern Greek Revival country estate also has it all. Designed and built by the current owners in 2008 on the site of a previous homestead, the house is almost precisely in the middle of the 27-acre parcel which includes open meadows, a spring-fed pond, fenced paddocks, pastures, a riding ring, and a six-stall barn with a wash stall. Combining a historically inspired old house vibe with modern construction techniques and state-of-the-art systems, the owners sought to create a sense of space and volume as well as to take maximum advantage of the stunning views over the picturesque village center of Barnard. The results present living on a grand yet comfortable scale. 12-foot ceilings grace the entire first floor and a soaring center staircase is a focal point for the main entry. The high ceilings, large windows, and elegant room proportions add to the experience of a considered, functional, and organized floorplan. A first-floor suite offers two separate his and her bathrooms. 3 generously sized bedrooms (one currently being used as a exercise studio) and a full bath can be found on the second floor along with the ultimate work from home office space and spacious exercise studio. Thoughtful attention to detail can be found from the custom woodwork and tile choices down to the cabinet knobs and drawer pulls in the kitchen – no element has been overlooked. An expansive L-shaped farmer’s porch with mahogany flooring runs to the north and east sides of the house and leads to the courtyard, the oversize two-car garage with multiple workbench areas, the barn, and paddocks. In the barn 2 of the 6 stalls are heated as is the tack room which has a half bath with wash sink plumbed with both hot and cold water and a washer and dryer.
