Breathtaking Post & Beam Home, Views, on 27 Acres (#33715)

Description of the Sugarbush vacation home rental

One of the Mad River Valley’s finest properties, perfect for family vacations, wedding guests or a gathering of friends, sleeps 12-14. Filled with natural sunlight, this gorgeous 5 BR, 2900sf home features oak pegged timber frame architecture, cherry hardwood floors inlaid with ash and maple, and spectacular mountain and valley views. It is sited on a private 27 acre farm, with no other house in sight, in the heart of the Valley’s pastoral farm country. The home is tastefully decorated and boasts a layout ideally suited for families traveling together: a private bedroom level featuring two luxurious master bedrooms with cathedral ceilings and a sumptuous glass and tile bath with deep soaking tub; a living level with an open floor plan comprised of three separate sitting and entertainment areas, dining room that seats twelve, beautifully equipped chef’s kitchen and marble-topped woodstove with ample wood supplies; and a bright family level with three bedrooms, luxurious mosaic-tiled spa bath, fully equipped mini-kitchen, and a common room full of games, videos, puzzles and books for rainy days. There are numerous amenities including a large mudroom, several flat screen TVs with DVD players, and an office with printer, fax, wireless high speed internet, and five-bar cell service. The beautiful property, located at the end of a private road, features a large deck with panoramic views, expansive lawns, stone walls, perennial gardens and flowering trees, an organic vegetable and herb garden, firepit, blackberry patches, an A++ sledding hill and a sparkling stream with waterfalls and pools. Also on the property is a fully-equipped equestrian facility with a run-in post and beam barn, several acres of grass fields, 60’ round pen, and outdoor kennel. Well behaved dogs considered on a case by case basis, with additional deposit. Can be easily equipped for babies (crib, changing table, high chair) with advance notice.

On 27 picturesque acres surrounded by farmland, woods and trails, this property offers the ultimate in privacy and yet is only minutes from skiing, Waitsfield and Warren villages and other Mad River Valley activities. The Mad River Valley is known as a "haven" for its "scenic rural landscape and peaceful way of life" (The New York Times). While its legendary skiing on three ski mountains and extensive network of VAST snowmobiling and cross country trails attracts winter sports enthusiasts, unlike many other ski resorts the Valley is surprisingly free of crowds and traffic. Its pristine countryside and progressive, sophisticated community makes it a wonderful destination year-round for everyone who after their first visit falls in love with its fresh air, natural beauty, and organic spirit. Summers offer arts festivals, farmers markets and a legendary 4th of July parade; kayaking, fishing and swimming in the beautiful Mad River; antiquing, shopping and dining on exquisite locally-grown fare as well as a myriad of activities from golfing to gliding.

This home is a perfect Vermont escape – you could enjoy your entire vacation simply relaxing on the deck, in the gardens, hiking around the property and surrounding landscape, or starwatching around the fire, listening to owls, moose calls and watching fireflies. It is also the perfect “home base” for those who want to explore all that the Mad River Valley has to offer. While extremely private, at the end of a private road with only woods and farmland around, it is also only 5 minutes to Waitsfield and 10 minutes to the Valley’s ski areas. The house is very spacious and intelligently laid out, equally comfortable for a couple or a large group of up to 14. Not in any way a sardine can “ski house”, there are ample bedroom and common spaces for everyone. For families traveling together, there are many possible configurations – each family can take a level and share the middle entertainment level, or the kids can have a “kid zone” with their own bedrooms, family/media and dining room, allowing the adults some quiet and privacy on the upper floors.

 Summer Family Reunion, February 8, 2009

By Barbara Wichmann (Pennington,NJ)

We chose this property for our summer family reunion—4 adults and 8 children (ages 5-13). It was perfect in every respect. Absolutely gorgeous mountain views from the deck, living room, kitchen, both master bedrooms and bath, too. This large home is stylishly and comfortably designed with all the amenities. The decor is beautifully done, but we appreciated that the couches and chairs were comfortable, too. We loved the great room with kitchen, dining, living room and TV available all in one big room. We also liked having a private “kids zone” for the younger set. It was very homey, too, so we really enjoyed our time at the house. When not outside enjoying the 40 acres of woods, fields and streams, the kids played games and cards in the comfy lower level game room, and loved having their own kitchen for drinks and snacks, while the parents read or watched movies upstairs. A terrific well equipped kitchen to gather and socialize while cooking, eating and enjoying one another. I s

 

 Wonderful Location, May 15, 2008

By Lori A. Rosa (New York)

This property is located in the horse/ski country of Warren, Vt. It is also a short drive to Waitsfield, Vt. which has a little more to offer. The views are wonderful. The house is very clean, neat, and comfortable. We had a wonderful time and wouldn't hesitate to rent again if we are in the neighborhood.
