99-Acre Furnished Vermont Farmhouse Retreat with Pond, Trails, Fields & White River Access A rare year-round rental opportunity in Stockbridge, Vermont: a furnished 1800s farmhouse on 99 private acres, with open fields, wooded trails, a 2-acre swimming and skating pond, and private frontage on the White River. This is the kind of property people imagine when they talk about getting away to Vermont, but rarely find available as a rental. It offers room to breathe, walk, work, read, ski, swim, garden, watch the seasons change, and live quietly without being isolated. It is close enough to Killington and local towns to be practical, but private enough to feel like a true retreat. This is not a suburban rental dropped into the country. It is an authentic Vermont retreat: quiet, rustic, comfortable, and deeply connected to the land. The property includes roughly 60 acres of open fields, old logging roads, wooded walking trails, a beach-like pond entry for summer swimming and winter skating, and approximately 1,700 feet of White River frontage. A secluded swimming hole is a short walk from the house. The land sits on both sides of the road, with classic barns across the street reflecting the property's working farm history. In summer, walk the fields, swim in the pond, follow the trails through the woods, or head down to the White River. In winter, skate on the pond, use the nearby VAST trail system, ski at Killington, or settle in by the wood stove. Spring and fall are classic Vermont: open fields, wooded hillsides, changing light, quiet mornings, and the feeling of having your own piece of the valley. The home has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 8 rooms total. It is furnished throughout except for one living room. The kitchen and family room are warm, open, and made for gathering. Exposed beams appear in the kitchen, family room, living room, and upstairs bath. Some floors have been restored with locally milled wide-plank hemlock. There is also a dedicated office with a beautiful nonworking fireplace, making the house well-suited for remote work, writing, creative work, or simply living quietly. High-speed EC Fiber internet makes remote work practical. Heating is provided by oil heat in the center of the house, with mini-splits in the wings engineered for Vermont winter conditions. There is also a wood stove. The house is rustic but comfortable, with the warmth and character of an older Vermont farmhouse. The location offers real privacy without being cut off. The house is minutes from the VAST trail system, less than 30 minutes from Killington, about 20 minutes from Rochester, and approximately 45 minutes from Rutland and Dartmouth-Hitchcock in New Hampshire. Nearby local favorites include Clear River Tavern, The Wild Fern, and the Original General Store. The road is one of the first to be plowed and is usually clear even during major storms. Lawn care and snow plowing are included. The driveway can comfortably accommodate 2 to 3 cars. This home is best for a couple or small household looking for peace, privacy, and an authentic Vermont setting. It is especially well-suited for remote work, a year-round retreat, or someone who wants the experience of living on land without having to own or maintain a farm. It is not a party house, event property, or short-term guest compound. This property is privately owned and cared for, with local handyman support nearby. Good communication is important. The right tenant will enjoy the freedom of the property while also respecting the house, the land, and the realities of rural living. Available June 1, 2026. One-year lease preferred, with flexible terms possible. First month, last month, and security deposit due at signing.

The heat works well, but the wings heated by mini-splits will not feel exactly like oil heat or radiator heat. The old logging trails are passable but naturally overgrown in places. The barns are attractive and part of the visual character of the property, but they are not included for tenant use. Bonfires are not permitted. No events, parties, subletting, or heavy guest use. The ideal tenant is someone looking for quiet, beauty, space, and a real Vermont retreat, not someone looking to turn the property into a high-traffic gathering place.
