Description

"Sweet Retreat" is a rare 33.5-acre sanctuary in Ripton, Vermont, just 15 minutes from Middlebury and 3 minutes from Middlebury College's Bread Loaf campus. Originally built in 1967 by a poet seeking summer refuge, it offers a pristine mountain stream with a cascading waterfall, views, forest, and total end-of-road privacy bordered by National Forest and conserved land. The cozy three-season cottage (which has potential to be modified for all season use) features a light-filled warm interior, large south-facing screened porch with views of waterfall and mountains, outdoor shower, 2 loft bedrooms, and bathrooms on both levels. A spring-fed stream flows through the land, forming a natural dipping pool just below the house. Direct access to the Long Trail, nearby Rikert Outdoor Center, and Snow Bowl ski area makes it ideal for outdoor enthusiasts. A classic storage barn was renovated in 2021 with a new roof, siding and sills. This is a truly peaceful and unmatched Vermont sanctuary. (There is a single lane roadway into the property.
