Property Description

The Inn at Grace Farm is a distinctive estate comprised of three thoughtfully designed buildings: the 5 bedroom Inn with connected Stone House, and a separate octagonal timber-frame event barn. Together, they offer exceptional flexibility for continued hospitality and event use, a private family compound, multigenerational retreat or a luxury residence. The Inn features 5 bedrooms with ensuite baths, a half bath, kitchen, great room, dining and living spaces. Connected by a breezeway, the Stone House offers three additional bedrooms plus office, two shared baths, a large kitchen, dining and living areas. The buildings can function together for expanded accommodations while also providing the flexibility for an owner to maintain private living quarters and operate the Inn and event space independently. A 3,300 SF walk-out lower level with multiple access points provides substantial storage, utility and additional flexibility. Built to rigorous commercial standards, the structures showcase traditional wood-pegged mortise-and-tenon joinery, highly efficient stress-skin insulation, standing seam roof, advanced mechanical systems and an integrated fire-protection sprinkler system. Constructed in 2014 from locally harvested timber, the separate octagonal event barn features a dramatic central timber post, expansive gathering space, radiant-floor heat, gas fireplace, catering kitchen, commercial event infrastructure and two restrooms. Set amid conserved pastureland with uninterrupted panoramic Green Mountain views, the picturesque grounds offer multiple outdoor gathering possibilities and room for additional amenities. About 25 minutes from Burlington International Airport, convenient access to Lake Champlain, ski resorts and year-round Vermont recreation, Grace Farm is a rare combination of craftsmanship, privacy, lodging, modern infrastructure and versatile commercial capability. Events already booked will be honored. Website: innatgracefarm.com - Also in MLS#5106600
