We have a 3 night minimum in peak periods and 2 night minimum off-peak (ask). Just a short walk to one of the country's preeminent fly fishing rivers, this 6 acre property will transport guests into a uniquely peaceful, bucolic setting with a sprawling lawn, fire pit and chairs, and gardens to enjoy in the summer, while an expansive victorian interior with a gourmet kitchen is suitable for memorable family and friend gatherings anytime of the year. The property is ideal in times of social distancing with many activities nearby suitable to safe recreation and excellent high speed internet (FO) connection. Enjoy hiking, biking, cross country skiing, birdwatching, canoeing and fishing, or simply relax and do nothing at the splendid 4000 square foot home which is decorated with sturdy antiques consistent with the home's late 19th century architecture and not the least bit stuffy. Extensive woodwork, and original chestnut paneling run through much of the house. Six bedrooms have their own bathrooms. The chef's kitchen includes a commercial 8 burner 2 oven range, 2 sinks and a subzero refrigerator. And the kitchen is fully stocked with high quality cookware. The dining room table can seat 12, while there is a small table in the kitchen for breakfast. A covered porch looks out on the garden. Outdoor dining under a vine covered pergola is magical. Grill on a Weber gas grill until your heart's desire. Inspired chefs can also pick fresh herbs from the garden. A butler pantry next to the dining room includes a microwave and a single cup coffee maker as well as a sink. The home has three parlor rooms, two of which have cable TV and DVD players. A mudroom/laundry room abuts the dining room and houses an antique half-bathroom. There is superior fibre optic high-speed internet/wifi to the modem in the home but no phone line and can support large number online and ideal for remote working and or school. Cell reception works well in the home. The driveway is gravel and includes a dry-stacked stone wall running the length of the drive. The home is located in the hamlet of Peakville and was built by the Peak family. There are five other homes in the hamlet and the closest is 100 yards away offering loads of privacy and spacious lawns for sledding, soccer, whiffle ball and corn hole (we have a set).
