For the first time in over half a century, this extraordinary 100+ acre estate-level property in Barnard is being offered for sale. Cherished by the same family for generations, the property presents a rare opportunity to own one of Vermont’s most scenic and versatile landscapes. Commanding long-range mountain views define the setting, while several picturesque spring-fed ponds, rolling meadows, and a network of maintained trails create a private sanctuary for recreation and relaxation. Acres of mature maple trees could support maple syrup production, and an expansive blueberry patch and apple tree collection offers a seasonal bounty. Every detail of the land reflects thoughtful stewardship and a deep connection to Vermont’s natural beauty. Anchoring the property is a charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath residence, cozy and welcoming in its simplicity, along with several outbuildings providing flexible space for storage, farming, or future vision. Whether preserved as a generational retreat, developed into a grand country estate, or enjoyed as it is, the property embodies both history and possibility. A true legacy offering, this unique Barnard property captures the essence of Vermont living at its most timeless and refined. Please, no drive-by's.
