MANCHESTER HOME - BREATHTAKING VIEWS! LOCATION! GOLF! SKIING! SHOPPING! HOT TUB!

Enjoy your next vacation here at this spectacular getaway home on Sleighbelll Lane nestled on 13 private acres in the beautiful Green Mountains of Vermont. We are located only 5 minutes to the heart of Manchester Center. Our 5,400 sq. ft. home, featured in The Vermont Country Store catalogue and the Orvis catalogue, is spacious and perfect for entertaining in a fully equipped gourmet kitchen with open floor dining. Your living space extends to the backyard where you can enjoy grilling, taking a dip in the hot tub, or just relaxing on the Adirondack chairs amid the breathtaking mountain views. Our home offers 5 bedrooms each with en-suite private baths, lower level with second fireplace, walkout patio, 3 car garage with heated floors and ample convenient ski storage, and a mud room with a cozy gas stove.
After a long day on the slopes, warm up indoors in the great room featuring vaulted ceilings and a two way fireplace complete with heated floors. Or relax in the sitting room with your favorite novel surrounded by beautiful mountain views all around you!
This is a vibrant town that has everything to offer from hiking, experiencing the beautiful autumn foliage, waterfalls, antiquing, local marathons, local swimming at the rock quarry, canoeing, festivals, concerts, special events, mountain biking, farmers markets, gourmet restaurants, designer outlets, museums, tours, skiing, cross country skiing, snow boarding, sleigh riding, indoor ice skating at Riley Rink, guided snowmobiling tours, or the many other attractions that Southern Vermont has to offer.
Enjoy snowshoeing, cross country skiing, snowmobiling, or hiking with direct access to the Vermont VAST trails from our property.
We are conveniently located 5 minutes to outlet shopping, excellent dining, Vermont Summer Festival, 25 minutes to Stratton Mountain and 15 minutes to Bromley Mountain. From Memorial Day Weekend through Columbus Day Weekend, Bromley offers an amusement park featuring an alpine slide, zip lines, mini golf, climbing walls, and trampolines.
The unique experiences to be found here in Manchester are unparalleled, like making your own glass art at Manchester Hot Glass, visiting the famed Northshire Bookstore, or the Falconry School in East Manchester.
The fishing and fly-fishing are outstanding on the Battenkill River especially with the Orvis Flagship Store & Fly-Fishing Academy located just 5 miles from the house.
There is the famous Equinox Resort, 10 minutes away, offering The Golf Club at Equinox, named one of the “Top 75 Courses in the United States”, and full luxury spa. There is also a driving range next to The Riley Rink, 2 minutes away.

Perfect Weekend Stay!

We had a wonderful experience at this home! It was exactly as described—spacious, clean, and well-appointed. The location couldn't be better: just a short drive to the shops and restaurants of Manchester, and less than a 30-minute drive to the slopes at Stratton. The hosts were fantastic, providing excellent communication with detailed check-in instructions and specific information about the property. This stay exceeded our expectations, and we would absolutely book again!

Enchanting Vermont Holiday

Each morning throughout our week after Christmas at Linda and PJ’s we were greeted by the view of the Green Mountains as we gathered for breakfast in the kitchen/great room area. It was truly an inspiring way to start each day. We had a number of family members ranging in age from 3 to 71. The house itself and the way it is equipped worked well for everyone. The room sizes are generous and the entire house feels both spacious and cozy at the same time. Bedrooms and bathrooms are very comfortable. Many enjoyed the well maintained hot tub. The mud room entrance is fabulous, especially with children and the heated floor garage was great for storing ski/outdoor gear. It is not possible to compliment Linda and PJ enough for offering such an exceptional home that makes visitors feel so welcome. Thanks for providing the backdrop for our “Enchanting Vermont Holiday!”

Thanksgiving in the Vermont Mountains

This house is very beautiful with large windows looking out on the Green Mountains across the valley, but it is only a 7 minute drive down to Manchester Center. The 5 bedrooms are quite nice (king & queen beds), all with ensuite bathrooms (a must for a large group like ours)! The Kitchen is extremely well outfitted with pots, pans, cassarole, baking sheets, and lots of utensils; all of this is critical for preparing the big Thanksgiving meal! And we all really enjoyed our stay here, even as we got some snow over the weekend! And Manchester is a real draw for us with wonderful shops and restaurants!This house is a great place for a large family or friends gathering!

Amazing Home in Manchester, Vermont

We absolutely loved our time in his beautiful home. Breathtaking views and perfect accommodations for our large family. Huge kitchen with open concept to an amazing living room. Every bedroom had its own ensuite, making it extra comfortable. We started and ended each day in the Adirondack chairs taking in the views and watching the moon rise. Our only regret was having to leave. Thanks Linda & PJ for making our stay just perfect!

Incredible week in perfect home. Highly recommend!

It’s hard to find words that accurately describe just how perfect this five bedroom with ensuites actually is for a group of 10/ 5 couples. Entering into the gorgeous family room/kitchen fully equipped and dining room area you are greeted with warm wood trim everywhere as well as a huge stone wood burning two sided fireplace. Ample room for all of us to linger and laugh and a gourmet kitchen where we all could prep and create in a BIG CHILL kinda way. Alexa provided fabulous music. Bedrooms are wonderful, fresh linens, new fluffy towels, puzzles, board games, bocce ball, Corn hole.. a small pond on the property is stocked and fishing equipment displayed in garage. Hiking path and hot tub as well as cozy spots to escape to with a glass of wine. We are here last week September and it’s beautiful. Can only imagine ski season. There is a full ski storage area with pot belly stove. The owners were available if we needed but the home really works and there was no need. Highly recommended for a family or group. Thank you so much to owners.

Linda was so helpful with all our needs. We were in town for a funeral and we’re having a dinner for family that was in town.

Breathtaking Views!

I have two many words to describe our stay. First we were welcomed with a nice welcome package from our hosts. Linda did an impeccable job of decorating for Fall. Pumpkins and Fall decor in all rooms including outside. There were three couples and two children ages 2 and 4. We all had our own space along with the open space of outside. My 4 year old grandson delighted in catching a fish(released) in the pond on the property. The house was fully equipped for our needs. The home is located a few miles away from town and we felt secluded in our own little world. Great family time! Breathtaking! We did communicate with our hosts who were available when needed. Best week for us leaf peepers! The colors were outstanding. Great area with great restaurants and shopping for us women. Great golfing and fishing area. I can’t say enough about our stay, but had to summarize! Thank you so much Linda and PJ Clarke.

A lovely Fall weekend in VT

My girlfriends and I loved staying in this beautiful home in one of our favorite towns in Vermont. We have visited this area for years for a Fall getaway and this is by the far the best home we have stayed in. We were pleasantly surprised to see the house decorated with fall decor and pumpkins - it was such a lovely touch! The view out the back and the floor to ceiling windows was unmatched. All of my friends enjoyed the fact that each bedroom has an en suite bathroom and that everything we could have needed was included. I would 100% recommend and would 100% stay here again!
