Nestled in the Champlain Valley against the protected Snake Mountain Wildlife Management Area in a classic Vermont landscape, life at Lucky Dog Farm defines the quintessential Vermont lifestyle. The 175-acre property offers privacy, sweeping views, miles of maintained trails, multiple venues for entertaining, and spectacular gardens. It includes a reimagined 1820's brick cape 3-bedroom farmhouse artfully expanded to encompass over 5,000 sf, newer and updated vintage barns and various outbuildings including a greenhouse. Lucky Dog Farm is a dog lover's dream property with 15 acres of invisible fencing, a large pen with shelter and a dog bath just off the private crushed stone driveway. It is also very suitable for livestock and/or an agribusiness location with two sources of high-speed internet. The main house is surrounded by thoughtfully designed gardens. A tapestry of plantings provides nearly continuous blooms, creating privacy and frames the expansive westerly views to the High Peaks of the Adirondacks. The home is set up for seamless entertaining, whether that be an intimate dinner in the summer pavilion or a winter evening gathering in the Bar with a fire blazing in the large stone fireplace in the adjacent Great Room. A chef's kitchen provides a great backdrop for friends and family to enjoy the intimacy of the historic brick farmhouse. The area is known for its fertile farmlands and scenic vistas. Only 10 minutes to Vergennes with shops, restaurants and services.
