This Historic Estate, formerly The Old Homestead Inn, is situated on 24+ wooded acres the heart of Barnet Village. Estates of this size are not common in the village, so this is a very rare opportunity to obtain a prime piece of Barnet Village. This home would be an ideal vacation property, family home or retreat for family and friends. Boasting 6+ bedrooms, 5+ bathrooms, a beautifully landscaped lot with a large expanse of woods, a deck overlooking the back greenspace and four porches, this makes for the ideal opportunity to enjoy all that Vermont has to offer. There is room to expand into the attic space as well as the lower level of the former barn that is prepped for radiant heat and awaiting the new owner's finishing touches. On the main floor you will find the laundry facilities, a large office, two kitchens, a bedroom with bathroom, a sunroom, living room and so much more. The second floor houses several more bedrooms, bathrooms and porches elevated to capture the expansive rear greenspace. The attic level has one bedroom and could easily house a large great-room. The property is well situated for solar, and the grounds would be ideal for equestrian activities, gardening or a gentleman's farm. Conveniently located less than 15 minutes from St. Johnsbury, and the world renowned St. Johnsbury Academy. An hour's drive will bring you to Dartmouth College or hospital, the Canadian border, Montpelier, many ski, cycling, and hiking trails, countless lakes and waterways.
