About this home

Historic Rowen Farm is an extraordinary Vermont country property, where the character of a circa-1812 Federal farmhouse has been preserved with exceptional care and paired with refined modern comfort on 77.68 private acres of reclaimed meadow, woodland and mountain views. Original wide-plank floors, exposed beams, doors, period details and four wood-burning fireplaces speak to the home’s history, while the updated kitchen, baths and lighting by Teaselwood Designs provide a refined modern counterpoint. Inside, the home unfolds with an easy, welcoming flow. The renovated kitchen opens to breakfast, dining and living spaces, with abundant windows framing the landscape. Porches and decks overlook meadows and ridgeline views. Mudroom, ski/gear room, laundry and outdoor shower support four-season living. The four-bedroom, five-bath layout is equally suited to quiet weekends or a full house. A first-floor ensuite guest room offers privacy, while a library/office leads to a separate wing with bonus room, 3/4 bath and exterior entrance, creating exceptional flexibility and potential for a private first-floor suite. Outside, the land is as compelling as the house. Reclaimed meadows, restored stone walls, woodland trails, brooks and exposed rock ledge create a private setting for hiking, biking and quiet enjoyment. The meadows are maintained by a farmer, preserving the pastoral setting with ease. A barn/garage with loft and lean-to adds character and storage. A comprehensive 2003 restoration by skilled craftsmen included major system upgrades and a full basement excavated beneath the original house. The town road was relocated to create greater setback and privacy. A four-bedroom wastewater system was permitted in 2022 and a new shingle roof completed in 2026. High-speed fiber internet keeps you fully connected. Offered largely furnished with limited personal exclusions. Just 8 miles from Okemo, with convenient access to Woodstock, Killington and the Upper Valley.
