33 Acres in Barnard, VT - $4,195,000
The culmination of a career spent creating extraordinary reproduction period homes in the Woodstock, Vermont area, StoneMeadow is an authentically reproduced second period American stone Cape created by aficionados of the form and its history. With a nod to local history, StoneMeadow looks to the classic 1840s Capes that were constructed by Scots craftsmen of hewn stone transported at great effort from the local quarries that dot Windsor County. The National Register of Historic Places refers to this part of Windsor County as “the stone house belt of Vermont.”
A secure gated entry and private drive lead to an elevated position from which the approach and the majority of the 33 acres can be observed. The home is ideally sited to take full advantage of southeastern exposure and local views.
