Description:Chase Brook Farm is at the end of a quiet country road, offering complete privacy on 53 acres and yet just 10 miles from Okemo Ski Resort, fine dining, and shopping. The views are punctuated by bucolic vistas of the Green Mtns including Steadman Hill, the highest peak in Chester. At the center of this property is a 2,941 s.f. farmhouse, built in 2008 and inspired by countless visits to Sturbridge Village. Thoughtfully designed to evoke the charm of a historic home, it features hand-planed boards, painted wide pine floors, wrought iron latches, and soapstone countertops while providing the comfort of modern amenities, including new mechanicals, updated wiring, and a large, dry basement. This property invites year-round enjoyment. In winter, sled down hills out back, or clear the pond for skating parties. Snowmobilers, skiers, and snowshoers will appreciate the room to roam and easy access to the VAST trail. After a day in the snow, warm up by one of the two cozy fireplaces or take a soak in the hot tub. In summer, enjoy a swim or cast a line in the stocked pond, or gather berries from the 80+ blueberry bushes and raspberry patch. The fall season brings apple picking and the land is suitable for livestock, offering versatility for a variety of uses. Chase Brook weaves in and out along the border to the East. Additional features include an attached 1-bay garage, a 3-bedroom caretaker’s house with a 3-bay garage, and fiber optic internet. Showings begin October 11.

Description:In Southern Vermont's Green Mountains, Owl Hill Reserve is a sanctuary spanning 1,928 acres, an expanse over twice the size of New York City’s Central Park. Assembled over half a century, this land has united generations in the celebration of the great outdoors. At the heart of the reserve stands an 1800s brick farmhouse, a testament to earlier days of farming, complemented by two historic barns, a two-bedroom barn apartment and guest house. Surrounding the farmstead are apple trees, stonewalls and a spring fed two-acre swimming pond, creating a quiet retreat or jubilant family gatherings. A 3.5-mile private, gravel road meanders with the brook, unwinding through a carefully managed northern hardwood forest, predominantly Sugar Maple, home to a rich ecosystem including bear, moose, coyote, bobcat, and deer. The changing landscape includes exceptional mountain views and rolling meadows either cut for hay or used for grazing cattle. The clear waters of the brook beckon fly fisherman to cast lines. Cross country skiing, snowshoeing, biking, hiking and equestrian pursuits are all out the backdoor with endless trails to explore. A remote cabin near an apple orchard offers a place to immerse in nature or a place to write. Owl Hill Reserve is a legacy offering. It offers the luxury of simplicity, the wealth of nature, and the bond of family heritage. Less than 3 miles from the village center and skiing nearby: 25 mins to Okemo, 33 mins to Bromley. 2.5 hrs to Boston, 4.5 hrs to NY.
