About this property
Dorset Summer Festival House - Secluded Location 15 minutes to Festival
Nestled on a quiet road with Bourne Brook flowing through your backyard, this classic Vermont home is just 100 yards from the Lye Brook Falls Trail and Appalachian Trail. Savor breathtaking Green Mountain views in a serene, private setting, only two miles from downtown Manchester, five miles from the Dorset Summer Festival and Bromley Mountain Ski Resort, and a short 20-minute drive to Stratton and Magic Mountains. This spacious retreat overlooks Bourne Brook and comfortably hosts up to 12 guests, featuring a large kitchen, great room with a gas fired stove, and a living room with a wood burning fireplace makes this home perfect for multi-family gatherings. The first floor boasts a master bedroom with a private deck and full bath, plus a second bedroom ideal for kids, featuring a full-size bed and bunk beds. Upstairs features another king bedroom with a sofa bed, two queen bedrooms, and a full bath. Relax on the expansive deck, or patio with a firepit, and enjoy the views of Equinox Mountain during warm summer evenings or cozy up by the wood-burning fireplace in the inviting, pine-walled living room on chilly winter nights. The great room, warmed by a Vermont Castings gas stove, offers a 65-inch TV and dining area, while a pool table awaits in an unheated upstairs room and a ping pong table in the basement. High-speed Starlink Wi-Fi and streaming TV keep you connected. Experience ultimate privacy with the tranquil sounds of Bourne Brook and abundant wildlife in the neighborhood.

Just five minutes from Manchester’s dining and shops, 5 minutes to Equinox Hotel, 15 minutes from the Vermont Horse Show and Summer Festival, and steps from Lye Brook Trail for direct hiking access. Bromley, Stratton, and Magic Mountains are within 5-20 minutes, with Okemo and Killington 25 miles away.
