About this home
Old Fitch Farm is one of New England’s most extraordinary estates. This remarkable residence is sited graciously on a plateau with 1200' of frontage on the Ottauquechee River, and views to Mt Tom and Woodstock Village. The impeccably restored five-bedroom, six BA main residence, four-bedroom, 2 BA guest cottage and impressive three-story horse barn reflect Federal and Greek revival influences of architect Asher Benjamin. The stately foyer in the main residence is centered by a splendid 3-story mahogany staircase, a true testament to the tradition of quality and fine craftsmanship of the era. The formal common rooms on the main level are spacious, elegant and impeccably appointed. The kitchen is spectacular with Italian tumbled marble floors, custom Dutchmade cabinetry, exceptional appliances, and Butler’s pantry with custom quartersawn-oak cabinetry. The Grand Primary Suite commands the second floor with a newly added, discreet elevator, his and hers dressing rooms, impeccably appointed bathrooms, and an office. The second level is further completed by two luxurious guest suites. The third level offers two additional guest rooms with a shared bathroom. Central AC, attached, heated three car garage. There is a spectacular hilltop riding ring with bridle paths lacing through the property. A short stroll to the shops, restaurants and galleries of Woodstock Village. Fifteen minutes to skiing. Two hours, fifteen minutes to Boston. Four and a half hours to NYC.

Forest Hall is an iconic Woodstock, VT landmark. It was completely restored by the current owners and is in pristine condition. No detail left untouched. The result is a rich blend of land, structure, location and history. The estate includes a 3-story residence with 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms, a 3-story carriage barn, a coachmans cottage serving as a guesthouse with 3 bedrooms, and 2 baths, and a bunk house/cabin all on 30+/- acres. The land is located on both sides of the road and includes over 1200' of Ottauquechee river frontage and bridal paths throughout. As a Village Farm, Forest Hall is ideally located in walking distance to the center of Woodstock yet situated on a rise with enough acreage to be completely private and peaceful.
