It's fall, the leaves are turning, and it's time to seriously think about that dream Vermont property. I'm talking about a perfectly renovated cape on 66 acres in Calais, Vermont.
Drive up the hill between a phalanx of towering white pines to this beautifully restored 1837 Cape glistening among perennial beds, maple trees and the magnificent stone walls that surround nearly all 66 acres of this haven of peace and privacy.
A vintage sugar house and a machinery barn house the Ford 1900 tractor with its snowplow, mower, grader, chipper and front end loader line the way to the 1200 bush blueberry patch set on a hillside above a little pond. Breathe in the sweet, green scent as you walk the trails through 30 acres of open meadows and explore the cedar and maple woods that are bordered in the back by a class four road.
The property is bounded by two 500+ acre family trusts and is sub-dividable.
Combining the classic Vermont farmhouse charm with space and light, the large kitchen/dining room with soapstone sink, all white beadboard cupboards and an AGA Cooker is the heart of the home. The carriage house has space for two automobiles and it has an attached shop.
