MAPLE LANE FARM - With a sweeping, maple-lined drive, this property holds court in one of Pomfret's most beautiful neighborhoods. Seven perennial gardens offer beauty in every season - from the "Secret Shade Garden" (created during Covid spring) to the two 100' perennial borders to the "Dwarf Conifer Garden" (how they GREW!) - and nothing is more peaceful than a walk through the Paper Birch Grove. The 1850's main house was built to respect the land, making this home poised for entertaining both indoors and out. The kitchen communicates with a comfortable fire-lit living space and the formal dining room beyond. The family room is ideal for watching movies, assembling Liberty puzzles, or drawing the gardens. With a large first-floor bedroom suite and 2-3 upstairs bedrooms with a full bath, the period main home is as comfortable as it is charming; comprehensively updated systems (including a new cedar roof, fresh paint, and central air) make it effortless. The “Five-Star” guest cottage (with a large fire-lit bedroom, kitchen, and bath) sparkles beside a 50x25 heated swimming pool. A three-bed dormitory with an en suite bath provides delightful additional lodging. With ample storage, multiple garage bays, a fully equipped propane-fired sugar house, and a small red barn, this property is the perfect place to entertain and be entertained. Finished with an expert eye to design and detail, Maple Lane Farm is an uncommon opportunity to embrace an elevated Vermont experience.
