Framed by groves of mature birch trees, a winding drive descends into a private valley surrounded by pastures, apple orchards, a spring-fed pond, and sweeping mountain views, arriving at Birch Tree Farm. Spanning more than 465 acres, this extraordinary Vermont retreat offers an immersive four-season lifestyle -- from pressing fresh cider from the orchard and tapping maple trees for syrup to harvesting honey and gathering fresh eggs for breakfast. Miles of trails traverse varied terrain, including the summit of Old Baldy Mountain (2,409 feet). The retreat includes a lodge-style residence, a modern barn, and several ancillary farm buildings. The wood and stone lodge-style home carries a relaxed mountain vibe. Thoughtfully renovated in 2026, the interiors balance scale and warmth: exposed beams, a cathedral ceiling in the great room, and a substantial wood-burning stone fireplace anchor the space, while floor-to-ceiling windows draw in sweeping views of the mountains. The wrap-around deck takes in an infinity pool, hot tub, and stocked pond. In spring, wild lupine carpet the meadow; in autumn, the apple orchard comes into its own. Landscape design by Shep Butler includes 10’ hydrangea bushes, perennials gardens, stone walls and a walled vegetable garden. The three-level bank barn, designed by award winning Boston architect John MacDonald and built by Housewright Construction, offers one of the finest barns in area with 7 box stalls, a farm manager’s office/tack room, and a versatile upper level for entertaining, recreation, and movie night as well as accommodating an overflow of guests. Nine fenced pastures, run-in sheds, chicken coop, apiary, and direct access to GMHA’s trail network support an exceptional equestrian and recreational lifestyle. 157 acres conserved by VLT. 3.1 miles from GMHA, 3.8 miles from South Woodstock Country Store and Post Office, Less than a half hour from Killington, 2.5 hours from Boston.
