About this home
This meticulously-updated Panton stone house with sweeping Lake Champlain and Adirondack views has been standing strong since 1790. Originally a select school house, history runs deep at this James Ten Broeke homestead who settled in Panton in the early 1800s. The current owners revived this property by completely renovating the structure in 2016, being sure to add desirable modern updates yet upholding the integrity of this antique home. Pine flooring, two original now decorative fireplaces, exposed hand-hewn beams, and 22” window sills are a few of the many features that speak to the history, yet now are complemented with a new roof, windows, kitchen, baths, heating system, insulation, etc. A thoughtfully-designed addition houses a mudroom and first level bath/laundry as well as a three-season porch with an antique oak fireplace and stunning views to the West. Completing this pristine 3 acre property, a c. 1850 barn and c. 1930 corn crib remain on site along with a newer shed and a 26’x40’ 2 bay garage with 12’ ceilings that offers space above which can possibly be converted into an accessory dwelling. Stroll the level yard featuring a small pond, mature fruit trees, perennial gardens, and a fire pit – a perfect place to enjoy the setting sun. The property, now coined FairHope Farm, is within a short distance of Arnold Bay, the location of Benedict Arnold's scuttled fleet, and just minutes from shopping and dining in Vermont's oldest city of Vergennes.

James TenBroeke Homestead with Lake Champlain Views. The original stone structure was constructed in 1790 and housed a select school run by the owner at the time. Since then, the main stone house has undergone a major renovation in 1993 refinishing the original wide pine flooring and upgrading the kitchen. The remainder of the home, a post and beam framed structure most likely built in 1850, is mostly original and ready for a major updating and restoration. The property also has a number of the original farm outbuildings with an English Barn c. 1850, multiple sheds c. 1890, chicken coop c. 1890, Corn Crib c. 1930. The current owners also had a four car, 26 x 40 "Super Garage" constructed in 2000 which has 12' ceilings with large second story storage loft and two 10' overhead doors. The home and barns are arranged in their original configuration forming a classic VT Farmstead Barn Complex. With a 3 acre site and existing pond, this is a historic gem waiting to be rejuvenated.
