About this home
Set on 204 acres of classic Vermont farmland, this spacious 4-bedroom, 1-bathroom farmhouse offers quiet country living with stunning long-range views of both the Adirondacks and Green Mountains. The home features over 2,100 sq ft of living space, plus plenty of storage inside and out—including multiple barns and outbuildings, one of which is a beautiful old post-and-beam barn. Approximately 132 acres are currently leased to a local beef farmer, providing immediate income. The land is conserved through the Vermont Land Trust and must remain in agricultural use, making it an ideal fit for farmers, land stewards, or anyone seeking a rural lifestyle. Two 2.1-acre lots are excluded from the easement, offering potential for additional development or homesites. A drilled well provides beautiful fresh water and the home is serviced by a private septic system. A newer power pole on-site is generator-ready, allowing for backup power to the entire property. Whether you're dreaming of a working farm, homestead, or simply a peaceful place with postcard-worthy views, this Benson property offers rare and lasting value. Don't miss your shot at this rare-to-market opportunity in the rolling hills of Vermont.
