2317 North Rd, Barnard, VT 05031

Hy-Wynds Farm is a classic Vermont homestead on the desirable North Road in Barnard. The home has been carefully upgraded to contemporary luxury standards while retaining elements of historic charm and style. The mountain views, sunrises and sunsets are sublime! The first floor includes a gourmet kitchen with soapstone countertops and kitchen island, formal dining room, den/study and a Great Room with stone fireplace. Off the kitchen is a full bathroom, plus a large combination laundry/pantry with built-in desk showing sweeping pastoral views from the oversized window. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and full bath plus sitting area. A huge mudroom connects the home to the 2-car attached garage. The property is further enriched by a large post and beam studio/workshop, so bring your imagination. The extensive gardens and animal barn with photovoltaics (net positive electric bill) lend themselves to a fully sustainable lifestyle. The current owners spent much effort enhancing the perennial beds, including an extensive array of Schreiner iris, David Austin roses and sweet peas from Floret Farm! The berry patch includes thornless Dorothy Thompson red raspberries, three kinds of currants & gooseberries. Other treasures are asparagus, rhubarb, and herb garden. You won't want to leave, but if you must, the farm is centrally located about half way between the quaint village of Woodstock and the convenience of I89. Glimmering Silver Lake and the Barnard General Store are a mere 2 miles away.
