Description
High on the side of Northeast Mountain, this exceptional 17.3-acre property brings together architecture, engineering, landscape, and privacy in a remarkable Vermont setting. Elevated above a scenic Green Mountain valley, the property enjoys expansive western and northern views, with the Adirondacks visible in the distance. Custom designed and built with an uncommon focus on performance and longevity, the 5,000+ square-foot residence pairs a Bensonwood timber frame with Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), creating an exceptionally tight, highly insulated building envelope for year-round energy efficiency and climate control. State-of-the-art systems are thoughtfully organized for accessibility and future maintenance, providing both sophisticated performance today and flexibility for future upgrades. Inside, impressive scale is balanced by warmth and livability. Three bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths are complemented by multiple living areas, a beautifully appointed gourmet kitchen, tranquil screened porch, and a full guest apartment for privacy. The layout offers excellent flexibility for entertaining, extended stays, or simply enjoying the generous spaces. Outside, landscaped grounds lead to a classic timber-frame barn with storage and potential for future expansion. A large fenced pasture adds versatility for gardening, recreation, or animals. Despite its private mountain setting, the property is conveniently connected to the region. Golf, hiking, an extensive mountain-bike trail network, Lake St. Catherine, and the village of Wells are nearby, with Dorset and Manchester an easy scenic drive away and several ski areas within an hour. For those who appreciate distinctive architecture, intelligent construction, energy performance, land, and long-term flexibility, this is a property designed to endure. Come experience the views, craftsmanship, and extraordinary quiet for yourself. Schedule a private showing and discover this exceptional Vermont mountain property.
