A historic 1,919 +/- acre
forest preserve etched into the Southern
Vermont landscape in Windsor County,
Smokeshire Valley Preserve
is truly one of New England’s premier
recreation and conservation retreats.
Situated in Chester, Vermont, a corner
of the property is handsomely outfitted
with a c. 1819 Cape, antique barns and
guest quarters, a newer caretaker’s
residence, kennels, period gas lamps and
lush gardens. From the c. 1819 Cape,
there are bold views of the antique
stonewalls, meadow, mature tree lines
and distant mountain ranges. Enjoy the
company of friends and family next to
the large stone fireplace that
fills the Cape with warmth and glow, or
pond-side with a stone-pit
blaze and background music provided by
peepers and owls.
The ridgelines that define the preserve
are dense and majestic, and sweep down
to the valley floor where rolling hills
intermingle with beaver-made wetlands,
orchards and streams.
The privacy and magnitude are especially
unique given that Smokeshire
Valley Preserve is easily
accessible from several cities,
including Boston, New York and
Washington D.C. |
