Description

Two Pigs Farm is a hillside retreat in Southern Vermont's Taconic Range, where meadows are bound by ancient maple trees, stone walls and two clear brooks. The circa 1989 farmhouse and barns feel timeless"rooted, quietly graceful"designed for comfort, and connection. Inspired by childhood summers in Sandgate, the owner dreamed of a place where time stretches"mornings for berry picking, afternoons for reading, and late winter for tapping maples, reconnecting with the rhythms of nature. A wide porch gazes across to rounded hills. The screened porch, with its pass-through to the kitchen, is perfect for summer suppers. Under the dappled shade of trees, a walled stone terrace welcomes lingering meals and conversations that last into starlight. Perennial gardens bloom from early spring to autumns last blaze. The kitchen is a true chefs haven"spacious and inviting, with an AGA range, Viking appliances, marble and soapstone counters, a walk-in pantry, and a tucked-away office. Wood-burning fireplaces anchor the library and living room. The primary suite has its own hearth; four more bedrooms offer room for guests. With a 7-stall horse barn, one bedroom studio/art space over the car barn with a commercial kitchen below, infinity pool, sauna house, solar array, greenhouse, trout pond, fruit trees and berries, this is more than a farm"its a place to re-create. 30 minutes from Manchester/Dorset, 3 hours from New York and Boston.
