DESCRIPTION
-
A rare opportunity to own approximately 39 acres and a genuine piece of Vermont history in the historic hamlet of Weathersfield Bow. Known historically as the former Danforth Inn, this circa-1780 property is far more than an old house, it is a remarkable collection of land, barns, history, and possibilities. The 39.11-acre parcel begins along U.S. Route 5 and extends deep into the countryside behind the homestead, offering a wonderful combination of open space, woods, privacy, and recreational potential. Adding to the property's unique character, historic Road J East (TH-114), currently identified as a Class 4 town highway, runs along a portion of the surrounding acreage. Two impressive historic barns add tremendous character and versatility. The larger barn features a beautiful stone foundation, full lower level, and surviving cow stanchions, reminders of the property's agricultural past and a wonderful opportunity for someone interested in farming, animals, storage, workshops, or preservation. The setting is equally compelling. Located along Route 5 in Weathersfield Bow, the property is surrounded by the rural landscape and history that define this special part of Vermont. At the heart of the property stands the circa-1780 residence, retaining an extraordinary amount of its early character, including wide pine floors, period woodwork, doors, hardware, and a center-hall staircase. The home needs significant restoration, but its remarkably intact character provides an increasingly difficult-to-find opportunity to preserve rather than recreate an early Vermont home. For the preservationist, farmer, equestrian, outdoor enthusiast, or buyer simply searching for substantial acreage with a story, this is a truly uncommon Vermont property where history, land, and opportunity come together.
