About This Property

Majestic Dorset Mountain views set the stage for this extraordinary 175-acre Vermont farm and country property in Danby, Vermont. Set along a quiet dirt road, the beautifully refreshed 1903 farmhouse overlooks an exceptional landscape of open fields, forest, pasture, trails and rolling Vermont countryside.  The property has a long agricultural history, formerly operating as both a dairy and alpaca farm and now enjoyed as a horse property. Extensive five-strand livestock fencing, hay fields and substantial usable acreage make this an outstanding opportunity for equestrian use, farming, homesteading or a private Vermont retreat. Miles of trails wind through the land, with direct recreational appeal enhanced by nearby VAST access, a historic apple orchard, and multiple year-round and seasonal brooks.  The farmhouse combines classic Vermont character with modern comfort, including charming original details, a Danby marble fireplace, a beautifully maintained local slate roof and an expansive deck positioned to take full advantage of the mountain views and peaceful surroundings.  A separate apartment with a tenant provides valuable rental income and excellent flexibility. It could continue as an income-producing unit, serve as private guest quarters, or create an ideal multigenerational living arrangement with separate space for family while still remaining connected to the main property. A large Cummins Onan propane whole-house generator adds convenience and security.  The land is enrolled in Vermont Current Use and supported by a 10-year forestry plan, offering meaningful property tax benefits while preserving the working and recreational character of the acreage.  For buyers searching for a Vermont horse farm, large-acreage country home, recreational property, income-producing farmstead, multigenerational home or private mountain retreat, this is a rare combination of land, views, history and versatility.

A rare and truly remarkable Vermont country Farmstead with 174.65 +/- acres in the quaint town of Danby awaits its next owner! The 1903 farmhouse has been tastefully renovated with great attention to include classic colonial details, an exquisite Danby marble fireplace & 3542 SF of pure elegance. No detail was overlooked in the transformation of the house into a modern-day jewel that affords a total of 6 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, mountain views to the south & a host of exceptional amenities. The design of the home includes an optional, interconnected guest wing with a separate entrance, of which 1 BR and 1.5 BAs are located. The masterful farmhouse has the farmland to match, with brambles of wild black raspberries, flocks of wild turkey, syrup-producing maple trees, and vintage stonewall boundaries seen throughout. An old, overgrown apple orchard with hundreds of apple trees is tucked away among the woodland to the north of the house – a hunter’s dream! The lightly travelled Danby Hill Rd crosses the property leaving approx. 25 +/- acres across the road opposite the house, allowing the magnificent view of Dorset Mountain to remain uninterrupted & allowing for a potential separate building lot. Approx. 30 acres of open land. The farmstead is carefully maintained by a local caretaker. 168-acres of the property are enrolled in Current Use & the home has been weatherized extensively. Within minutes to 1-hour of 7 ski mountains. A masterwork of beauty and functionality all around.
