This historic Federalist-style home was built in 1828 as a private residence for the family of Daniel Chipman, a Charter Trustee of Middlebury College, lawyer, and U.S. Representative from Vermont. It was not until the 1970's that the home was converted to an inn, and its current owners have operated the house as a bed-and-breakfast. The house could easily be used either as a private residence or B&B. With 5,258 square feet this home includes 11 bedrooms and bathrooms, two expansive living rooms, modern kitchen, wet bar, and dining room (seats 28) complete with a historic Rumford fireplace and beehive stove. It is ideally suited for either a large family or enterprising entrepreneurs wanting a historic B&B in a fabulous location. Only minutes from the Middlebury College Breadloaf campus, hiking trails in the Breadloaf Wilderness, and skiing at Rikert Ski Touring Center and the Snowbowl - opportunities for outdoor activities are abundant. Having both historic and modern features, this home offers its future owners the best of both worlds. Presently, the owners occupy five of the eleven bedrooms, and six are used as short-term rentals. With amenities such as a separate private suite with its own entrance, zoning allowing for both residential and commercial use, a modern timber frame barn with loft, and 5.9 acres of land with many mature maple trees, all in a superb location, this one-of-a-kind gem provides its next stewards with endless opportunities.

This beautifully renovated home was originally a one-room school house! Its historic charm is perfectly blended with all the desirable modern elements - open floor plan with a very spacious kitchen and dining room area with several added windows for sunlight and breezes. The kitchen's huge butcher block peninsula also serves the dining room. The Mexican tile behind the gas cooktop is a gorgeous focal point along with the double wall ovens, stainless steel refrigerator, and stainless steel dishwasher. A big living room allows for two sitting areas with glass doors to access the lovely side yard and backyard. There is is a bathroom on each floor, each renovated and spa-like. The three bedrooms are nestled under the eaves. Skylights in the hall and bathroom allow light from every angle into the upstairs. The gardens surrounding the house are absolutely stunning with perennials that bloom and add color throughout the growing season. Add the annual beds and the flower power is incredible! Landscaping with Japanese Nishiki willows, berry bushes, ornamental grasses, pathways, and more. Best of all, the 16' x 16' back deck is perfect for watching wildlife and listening to the babbling brook. The detached two-car garage is close to the house and a larger outbuilding would be perfect for a farm stand or another type of business. Just minutes to I-89, Central Vermont Hospital, Northfield, and Montpelier!
