Wild Trails Farm offers unparalleled privacy, encompassing 472 acres of natural splendor. At the heart of this retreat is a 5,600+ sq ft lodge that is both luxurious and eco-friendly, powered by solar and geothermal. It features 6 spacious bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen with dual dining areas, common rooms, and sauna. The 2-car garage is currently utilized as a yoga studio, but could be easily converted back. Whether you’re relaxing on the stone patio with sweeping southern views or enjoying the cozy screened-in rear porch, you’ll find the perfect spot to savor the tranquil surroundings. The magical grounds include manicured lawns, two ponds, colorful gardens, and seasonal fruit and berry patches. A 20+ km trail network winds through the property, perfect for hiking, biking, snowshoeing, and cross-country skiing. The land includes many natural and historic features, including inspiring, long-range vistas and also connects directly to numerous trails, backroads and features off site. The property comprises several additional structures: a restored circa 1800 barn with a 2-bedroom apartment and renovated farm manager’s room with bath; the Cider House, a delightful 1-bedroom post and beam residence; post-and-beam stable; and equipment barn. Other features include a greenhouse, raised garden beds, pretty stone walls, a remote 2-bedroom off-grid cabin with septic and well, and a treehouse with wood stove and views. A rare opportunity to own a truly majestic property.
